“The war is not meant to be won, it is meant to be
continuous. Hierarchical society is only possible on the
basis of poverty and ignorance. This new version is the
past and no different past can ever have existed. In
principle the war effort is always planned to keep
society on the brink of starvation. The war is waged by
the ruling group against its own subjects and its object
is not the victory over either Eurasia or East Asia, but
to keep the very structure of society intact.”
