"Fear breeds self-censorship, and self-censorship is more insidious than the state-imposed kind, because it’s a surer way of killing the impulse to think, which requires an unfettered mind. A writer can still write while hiding from the thought police. "

"But a writer who carries the thought police around in his head, who always feels compelled to ask: Can I say this? Do I have a right? Is my terminology correct? Will my allies get angry? Will it help my enemies? "

A very interesting article. However, I don’t concur with his brief comments on Trump - I’d suggest that shallow corporate journalism has begun its terminal decline and that there has never been a better time for well written unorthodox voices, in part, thanks to that of Trump

I've read one Orwell novel. The one everyone reads. (And a little essay on writing that said never to use "not -un.") Could he have imagined that the Thought Police would be social media trolls and twitter mobs? His imagined repressors at least had jobs and titles.pic.twitter.com/51VUEOj3yc
