George Orwell’s Prescient Insight on the Modern World

This footage from a 2003 BBC docudrama about George Orwell’s life and works is so real, it’s terrifying. A few of the author that is great activist’s final terms how he envisaged the long run are well-known, but this clip is fantastic for gathering all their thoughts in one place (and sharing them with anyone that is still snoozing).

Orwell predicts there will be “No emotions except fear, rage, self and triumph abasement.” He continues on to prophesize that “the sex instinct will probably be expunged and now we shall abolish the orgasm.” Sound weird? Britain has simply prohibited activities being pornographic cause feminine pleasure, while anti-depressants as well as other pharmaceutical medications recognized to stifle sexual interest. As a side note, Terence McKenna as soon as famously stated, “If they are able to make sexual activity illegal,  they would.” They’re probably taking care of that one…

Orwell additionally says, “There will likely be no commitment except loyalty to your ongoing party and constantly, there would be the intoxication of power, excitement of triumph, and impression of trampling on an enemy that is helpless.”

He completes by saying: “If you need an image of the long-term , imagine a boot stamping on a face… Forever. The ethical to-be drawn using this nightmare that is dangerous is a straightforward one: Don’t allow it to take place. It depends on you.”

Here is the video:

  1. This is extremely poorly written. It’s really hard to discern most of Orwell’s quotes. You need better writers. “The pen is mightier than the sword.”

    Poor writing undermines your message. I am in favor of Anonymous, and their point of view. But there’s too mucj bad writing in the world today. Don’t add to it.

  2. Was this translated from a foreign language? It is unintelligible to me. I am a college educated native English speaker. Please, next time, let someone proofread before posting. You lose all credibility as an intelligent person otherwise.
