[Censored Tile]

What’s the difference between Right-wing politics and Left-wing politics? According to George Orwell, none. Once a communist fighting against fascism in the Spanish Civil War, Orwell realized that no side was better than the other. To illustrate this point he wrote “Animal Farm”, a story about farm animals that revolt against their human masters and “seize the means of production”; a clear allegory to Socialism. However, once in Power, the pigs who lead the revolution start to behave like their former human oppressors, representing the dictatorship that socialist countries inevitably become. However, its most influential work is “Nineteen Eighty-Four”, a novel featuring a dystopic future where the government controls every aspect of society, including the very thoughts of people. This story popularized words like “Orwellian”, “Big Brother”, “Thought Police”, “Newspeak”, “Doublethink”, among others. You might be thinking: “Good thing this is all just fiction”. Well, think again. Biased people are already controlling how people should talk or act, how they should treat each other and even how, you guessed, they should think. These people are the postmoderns, also know as “SJW” or “Social Justice Warriors”. For people who see themselves as paragons of justice, these folks are doing a great job at destroying Western society. But as the saying says, “the road to Hell is paved with good intentions”.
