1984 Required Reading: Support Silver Senator 2016 Here Now

"Outside, even through the shut window pane, the world looked cold. Down in the street little eddies of wind were whirling dust and torn paper into spirals, and though the sun was shining and the sky a harsh blue, there seemed to be no color in anything except the posters that were plastered everywhere." 

The year is 1984; the scene is London, largest population center of Airstrip One.

Airstrip One is part of the vast political entity Oceania, which is eternally at war with one of two other vast entities, Eurasia and Eastasia. 

At any moment, depending upon current alignments, all existing records show either that Oceania has always been at war with Eurasia and allied with Eastasia, or that it has always been at war with Eastasia and allied with Eurasia. 

Winston Smith knows this, because his work at the Ministry of Truth involves the constant "correction" of such records. 

"'Who controls the past,' ran the Party slogan, 'controls the future: who controls the present controls the past.'"

In a grim city and a terrifying country, where Big Brother is always Watching You and the Thought Police can practically read your mind, Winston is a man in grave danger for the simple reason that his memory still functions. 

He knows the Party's official image of the world is a fluid fiction. 

He knows the Party controls the people by feeding them lies and narrowing their imaginations through a process of bewilderment and brutalization that alienates each individual from his fellows and deprives him of every liberating human pursuit from reasoned inquiry to sexual passion. 

Drawn into a forbidden love affair, Winston finds the courage to join a secret revolutionary organization called The Brotherhood, dedicated to the destruction of the Party. 

Together with his beloved Julia, he hazards his life in a deadly match against the powers that be.

Newspeak, doublethink, thoughtcrime--in 1984, George Orwell created a whole vocabulary of words concerning totalitarian control that have since passed into our common vocabulary. 

More importantly, he portrayed a chillingly credible dystopia. 

In our deeply anxious world, the seeds of unthinking conformity are everywhere in evidence; and Big Brother is always looking for his chance. 

Review

Novel by George Orwell, published in 1949 as a warning about the menaces of totalitarianism. 

The novel is set in an imaginary future world dominated by three perpetually warring totalitarian police states. 

The book's hero, Winston Smith, is a minor party functionary in one of these states. 

His longing for truth and decency leads him to secretly rebel against the government. 

Smith has a love affair with a like-minded woman, but they are both arrested by the Thought Police. 

The ensuing imprisonment, torture, and reeducation of Smith are intended not merely to break him physically or make him submit but to root out his independent mental existence and his spiritual dignity. 

Orwell's warning of the dangers of totalitarianism made a deep impression on his contemporaries and upon subsequent readers, and the book's title and many of its coinages, such as NEWSPEAK, became bywords for modern political abuses.

It is well beyond time for US to take back our destiny and replace the Warfare Welfare Party by electing Constitutional Freedom, Peace and Prosperity Independents.

We the citizens of Nevada and the United States of America are tired of paying for unconstitutional government.

Fellow citizens, our mutual prosperity depends upon due process, free economy, free elections, free speech, integrity, legal protection of liberty, life, property and self-defense.

Therefore we are the leading US Nevada Constitutional Independent Candidate for liberty, life, peace and prosperity.

We are not funded by special warfare welfare interests with anti-American conflicts of interest.

Thus we count on your self-interest and support now to win Independent Constitutional Representative Leadership for you and yours in 2016 and beyond:


Let's feel free to cancel paper propaganda, cut cable umbilical cords, eschew social media espionage, stop the cheaters, turn off TV brainwash, to think for ourselves, our business, our family, our freedom, our friends, our community, our country, our property, our state, our power.

Let's give, get out and about, to help US win freedom, peace, prosperity and American values.

Thank you.
