      If you're missing a truly idiotic take on Orwell, and would like it topped off with a quote from an awful Douglas Adams book (and I say that as a huge Hitchhiker's fan), that the tweeter can't even be bothered to get close to right then, man, is this the thread for you.https://twitter.com/arthur_affect/status/1290034984871321600 …

      SOMETIMES they ARE lying in order to oppress you And sometimes you're just a dumbass Who then becomes an asshole about being a dumbass As Douglas Adams put it, "The universe had not yet taught Tricia the most vital lesson, determining which of these two circumstances applies"

      It still amazes me that it took these idiots until the point where they were, literally, arguing that 2+2=5 to see the parallels with Orwell. Even more amazing is that, when they did, they decided that Orwell was the problem.

      Orwell envisaged a narrowing of the language, the tightly defining of every term, but old meanings of words stick around for a long time, so it's a slow process. Expanding words, so that they become meaningless or ambiguous, is much faster it seems.

      "Orwell said this thing was bad, so the people doing THE EXACT OPPOSITE of this thing must be doing THE SAME THING BUT WORSE" Yeah okay

          "If removing words from the English vocabulary to destroy the capacity to form new ideas is bad, ADDING new words to make it EASIER to form new ideas is WORSE The only way to preserve truth is to keep the number of words exactly the same as it is now, the correct number"

          I'd love to hear the explanation of how inventing more words makes the existing words *less* clear rather than more
