Comments by "" (@shamrock141) on "What "Orwellian" really means - Noah Tavlin" video.
@Ironrider88 last time I checked you aren't forced to believe anything, you can choose what you wish to believe in, this is the consequence of freedom of speech, the exact opposite of Orwellianism

Jesus Christ... Wtf does that even mean?

I haven't seen puddles in the desert shallower than your thought process there

No, quite the opposite, we warned us about control culture. Cancel culture is just informal groups of people boycotting goods and services, that's not what an authoritarian regime does, it controls you, how you act, how you think, what you buy, who you hate.

The difference is these sites are private and you have absolutely no obligation to be on them, leave if you feel like your critical thinking skills are being impeded, no one will stop you

Man you guys are so determined to be victims

@FruityHachi you trying to force other people to only believe only what you believe about gender ideology instead of letting them live their own lives how they want is Orwellian

@Loronline no, it's really not, don't be absurd. We still have law and due process, we don't have a thought police hauling people into prisons without trial, there is no torture of citizens, there is no constant war designed to perpetually eat up resources and keep people in extreme levels of poverty, there is no unelected party perpetually in total power, there is no mandate for artificial insemination or two minutes hate. This modern day victim complex undermines what true authoritarianism is

@classicist17 lol and thus you sound Orwellian

Both, if you think your side of the aisle doesn't have people that seek to control you, you're woefully naive

Because we don't live under an authoritarian, unelected regime that dictates what you do, when you do it, who you do it too and most concerningly, how you think. This is victim complex nonsense, the desire to be special because the world is against you, and not properly appreciative of real instances of authoritarianism.

No it's not, don't be absurd. Orwellian dystopias are worse by orders of magnitude for every single aspect of your life.
