@hardclass2020 Human beings are inherently creative animals- even in the most brutal of circumstances, we are designed to create (e.g. prison art, etc.)- no confluence of policies, no matter how repressive, can limit our core creativity completely.

next time something I say doesn't make sense I don't want any of you to think I'm an idiot I'm just newspeaking at a higher level

@liammurphyreads @OldTakesExposed does Twitter exist in the world of 1984? the only risk of a bad prediction is somebody calling you out. Not only can Big Brother change what they said, they can stop anybody from mentioning anything about it.

I'm not sure who first said that "the winners write the history books", but it's terrifying to consider how many of our historical ideas and concepts have been shaped by a government and cultural oligarchy that I sincerely hope is less malicious than "Big Brother"

@nick_popolizio the two minutes hate also ensures that the populace remains united as a homogeny against the heterogenous "other"

@hardclass2020 The great thing about the humanities is that they lack objective truth, unlike science where the objective truth is that Facebook groups hold all the best answers

call me a junkyard way I'm stacking all this machinery

@hardclass2020 if I can't have a perfect culture explain why I can get a large iced tea at McDonalds for a mere 1.25 that's the real sweetness people should have been going after
