The Thought Police (Owen Jones!) and Thoughtcrime. Conspiracy theories (Qanon). People being numbed due to ubiquitous entertainment (sport, Netflix, porn). The Two Minutes Hate, not to mention the Two Minutes love (clap for carers!) Physical Jerks! Etc. Orwell was onto things!

OJ is like a nasty kid from the Youth League. I happen to find 1984 incredibly prescient, mostly in a metaphorical way but sometimes more literally. I agree with you that ‘wrongthink’ is a bit lazy and that when quoting authors, you should get it right, my bad. I misremembered.

Anyways you're probably going to tell me the actual object of the Two Minutes' Hate is JK Rowling or something because you're a TERF and TERFs live in a narcissistic dreamworld
