anyone that whines about Rage Against The Machine’s music being “tOo pOLiTiCaL”
I remember chuckling to videos of drumptards dancing to RATM during the Floyd protests and covid. It was obvious that their only takeaway was “fuck you, I won’t do what you tell me”
I know someone who used to go to rage against the machine concerts in their youth and is now a Republican. Every day I wake up and thank god I am not that braindead
With a name like Rage Against The Machine, it’s on the tin.
Republicans think they’re the punks because they rally against decency.
“It’s too bad they are raging FOR the machine now”

People who say Star Trek is “too woke”
They had the very first interracial marriage in fiction back in the 1960’s, I think they have the license to be at least a little woke.
First interracial kiss on television too

1984 is not about mass surveillance. It’s about lowering the langage and culture so that you don’t even have word to criticize the system.
It’s about total control from the perfect totalitarian state. Mass surveillance is a small part, and control of language is also a part. But it’s also about control of truth and history, and eventually even control of the inner mind.
The cameras are only a tiny part.
Surveillance isn’t done by cameras in the book, it’s done by the citizens. One of the side characters joins the main character in jail in the final act cause his kids told on him… and he was proud of them for it.
True, there are microphones, because I specifically remember the main character taking a walk through a new forest, because the thin trees couldn’t possibly hide a microphone.
Which is part of the propaganda, that you should be wary of everyone watching you at all times.
The only one they specifically are targeting that we know of is the main character, and it’s because of something he had done years and years before. It was targeted surveillance, not mass surveillance.
Pretty sure there was a TV in every home and they were surveillance devices
Cops saying “Just a few bad apples”.
Remind me again? How does the full saying go?
Loud, rich Christians.
Everyone who “does their own research”
Let them eat cake. Or doesn’t that count?
