      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!

      How many people have been arrested, tortured and killed by Owen Jones? Ballpark estimate

      This is so fucking absurd Like you're yapping about this and you don't even realize the most absurdly, hilariously, tragicomically Orwellian thing about the UK press is how Owen Jones is your Emmanuel Goldstein

      I've never seen Owen be purposefully mean to anyone. Occasionally makes mistakes, like everyone else, but not some sort of ogre.

      I don't agree with him on a lot of things but he has always struck me as a fundamentally decent guy, a HELL of a lot more decent than the people who yell at him all the time

      I done know much about Owen Jones but he regularly denounces people (usually women) on Twitter (quoting them) and that makes me think of Orwell’s view of Thoughtcrime.That’s all.

      "Denouncing" things is normal Orwell denounced people all the time Thinking that people are wrong and should be yelled at for being wrong is not at all the same thing as censoring them, which is exactly why the term "wrongthink" for "crimethink" is obnoxious

          Suzanne Moore claims that he tried to get her sacked. People like him called for Rosie Duffield’s resignation. However, I don’t follow him closely. He has a sanctimonious air that reminds me of the children in the Youth League - Parsons’ children specifically. They don’t kill.

          And yet she wasn't sacked, and Rosie Duffield didn't resign, whereas Parsons' kids got their own father tortured and executed, so I guess this analogy is exactly as overwrought and histrionic as it sounds

          It all depends on the power of the denouncer.

          And we have established that Owen Jones doesn't have nearly as much power as the people who constantly yell at him seem to imagine he has

          To denounce means to publicly declare that someone or something is evil or to inform against someone. So it’s what the Stasi did as well as the Thought Police in Orwell. This is not normal in a non-totalitarian state.

          Criticism is healthy but when OJ or someone else denounces someone or something, you have to ask who appointed them judge and jury? Some people have more power than others, and they need to be held accountable for abusing it. Who did Orwell denounce as opposed to criticise?
