We’re not at 1984; Trump’s election stopped that in its tracks. What we are approaching with utter swiftness is Idiocracy, which, thanks to the ‘education’ system, is baked in.

Minute Hate vs Social Media Frenzy.

Up Canada way the urbane and laidback pundits daily bring up one name- Trump. It seems they are absolutely obsessed with what he might do- or is doing.
Meantime the average Canadian battles the winter and gets down to Tim Hortons. I go there and of Trump- nary a word.
"Animal Farm" is the instruction manual. "1984" is the result of following the instruction manual.
