or do u think they were more like, “damn i wish i was alive in 1964 and dropped hella acid with ken kesey and the merry pranksters and got naked on a commune with 69 other sexy hippies and grew a fuckton of weed while naming my kids starshine rainbowkiss”

just a random question ive been wondering

I was 5 years old in 1984, and I was not like “damn this is like 1984”.

Most likely due to the fact that I was 5 years old at the time. Have you ever talked to a 5 year old child? They have no idea what’s going on.

Also, Orwell was a fucking anti-communist snitch, so his work should not be taken seriously.

Did he? In his book he only mentions doing random shots, never if he killed any.

He definitely was shot by fascists more, thought.
