One of these campaign signs was a lie.
The other was not real, but was true.

“You can’t have double-think if you don’t think even once!” - Snarky Orwell
Doublethink took too much effort, this process has been streamlined for your convenience. You are welcome! - the Ministry of Truth

MAGA supporters are notoriously fickle, contradicting themselves on major issues like war and social policies. Just when you think you know what they stand for, they flip on their previous stance and support something entirely different.

Oceanic society rests ultimately on the belief that Big Brother is omnipotent and that the Party is infallible. But since in reality Big Brother is not omnipotent and the Party is not infallible, there is need for an un-wearying, moment-to-moment flexibility in the treatment of facts. The key word here is blackwhite. Like so many Newspeak words, this word has two mutually contradictory meanings. Applied to an opponent, it means the habit of impudently claiming that black is white, in contradiction of the plain facts. Applied to a Party member, it means a loyal willingness to say that black is white when Party discipline demands this. But it means also the ability to believe that black is white, and more, to know that black is white, and to forget that one has ever believed the con-trary. This demands a continuous alteration of the past, made possible by the system of thought which really embraces all the rest, and which is known in Newspeak as doublethink.
So disorienting to be re-reading this at this time in US history.

Apparently this story is only news OUTSIDE of the USA. #Disney - owned #ABC News is practicing #doublethink about the Trump administration's illegal, impeachable #EpsteinFiles coverup. Ignorance Is Strength.

"Via Rail says recent train cancellations along its Toronto-Ottawa-Montreal corridor . . . are a short-term measure meant to "protect service reliability.""
If #VIA managers can't speak coherent English, how can they run a railroad?
They can't.

"WE COULD HAVE USED A SOFTER TOUCH." (TRANSLATION: WE COULD HAVE KILLED FEWER PEOPLE WHILE STILL TERRORIZING EVERYONE ELSE.) - BIGLY BROTHER
Because the problem wasn’t the authoritarian oppression or the actual murders… it was the optics!

“I WAS THE MOST PEACEFUL PRESIDENT EVER. BUT THEN YOU DIDN’T GIVE ME THE PRIZE, SO NOW I WILL TAKE GREENLAND BY FORCE IF NECESSARY. YOU MADE ME DO THIS. THIS IS STILL PEACE. ADJUST YOUR THINKING ACCORDINGLY.” - BIGLY BROTHER
This is toddler logic, strapped to global nuclear diplomacy. Dangerous stuff!

On Nineteen Eighty-Four: A Biography of George Orwell's Masterpiece - D. J. Taylor
Orwell: The New Life - D. J. Taylor
There seems to be growing disinformation or a misreading of #GeorgeOrwell's works, by which he would perhaps be bemused. So, I would strongly suggest the following #books and resources about #GeorgeOrwell and #NineteenEightyFour. #DoubleThink #IgnornanceIsStrength

Unfortunately we’re now living in a world where the attention span of most people is limited to 3 seconds of TikTok, and therefore #Doublethink proliferates: nobody remembers that he was part of the problem, so he can now be part of the solution.

Does this sound distressingly familiar? “The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.” #GeorgeOrwell #doublethink

NPC "War Is Peaceful" MAGA Crowd Meme An illustration showing a crowd of identical gray NPC (non-player character) figures, all wearing red "Make America Great Again" hats, with simple expressionless faces (two dots for eyes, simple line mouths). The figures are arranged in rows extending into the background. Above them is a white speech bubble with black text reading: "GOING TO WAR WITH EVERYONE IS PEACEFUL NOW" The meme satirizes MAGA supporters who have shifted from an "anti-endless wars" stance to supporting Trump's aggressive military actions, drawing a parallel to George Orwell's "1984" doublespeak concept of "War is Peace." The NPC format emphasizes mindless conformity and the inability to recognize logical contradictions.
Hey #MAGA, do y'all really want to wage continuous wars with everyone, including our allies? Donald J. Trump is going to be forcing ya'll into it and will be using your tax money to wage those wars.

There is no way that you can create a culture that is so warped that it can reconcile having a government that goes against every bit of homespun propaganda distributed for the past 80 years. 😠
