Orwell-pilled: when you can see your former 1984-ish condition
Huxley-pilled: when you can see your former Brave New World condition
Most of the people screaming “1984” are trapped in a Brave New World. The converse feels less true, but then I’m more H-pilled than O-pilled.

Huxley vs Orwell comic. Says a lot about which world we’re living in that I’m sharing a comic. Also that I’ve read Orwell (both 1984 and Animal Farm) but not actually read Huxley. Only a synopsis.

This is clearly someone in a Brave New World. How on earth do you unironically quote Orwell while being Trump’s advisor and part of the Hoover institute getting market intel in March? You do it by being in a BNW. t.co/wyDp7g2mC7

It is notable that for all the screaming about censorship, if it’s actually hard for anyone to find the NY Post stuff on Hunter Biden, or Atlas’s Brave New Thoughts about masks, it’s not because of information suppression but the sheer noise levels. Which is Huxleyean.
Wonder if the Streisand effect of the Twitter actions drove more eyeballs to the NY Post stuff than blocking it stopped. Either way this is a chapter out of BNW, not 1984.
