    The more comments and news I read about the US the more Orwellian it feels.

    You guys really need a massive left-shift away from the omnipresent government which regulates bodies more than companies.

          This is what happens if you stop developing your democracy and chill on the work people from the past have started to develop

          Happens all the time, if you look into history

      At some point, someone is going to figure out George Orwell was actually a time traveler, and he tried to fix things with books. He had to deliver the message that way because if he just shouted in the streets the things that were going to happen, he’d been written off as a madman. Change a few details here and there… and then sell it as “fiction”…
