In "1984," George Orwell's chilling line, "The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command," highlights the Party's complete control by demanding blind obedience and the suppression of independent thought and observation. Here's a more detailed explanation: Totalitarian Control: The quote underscores the Party's absolute power, as it forces citizens to disregard their own perceptions and instead accept whatever the Party dictates as truth. Manipulation of Reality: The Party's demand to reject the evidence of one's senses means they can rewrite history, fabricate evidence, and control information to maintain power. Suppression of Dissent: By demanding blind obedience, the Party eliminates any possibility of independent thought or questioning, ensuring that citizens are compliant and unable to challenge the regime. The Heresy of Common Sense: The quote suggests that the Party's philosophy tacitly denies the validity of experience and the existence of external reality, making common sense a form of heresy. The Power of Language: The Party's control extends to language itself, as they manipulate words and concepts to control thought and perception. Ultimate Goal: The Party's ultimate goal is to control not just actions, but also the very minds of the citizens, making them incapable of independent thought or action.
Everyone boycotting usašš
This man must think heās Jesus Christ or something 200% is crazy
Awesome Higher prices,401k sinking,less jobs more unemployment Good times
What "American" champagne producer? You mean American sparkling wine producer?
What did Voltaire mean when he said that "those who can make you believe absurdities, can make you commit atrocities"? He meant that once you get used to accepting what you are told without questioning it, no matter how absurd, you lose the ability to understand what is good or bad.
From Canada with love ā¤, Boycott America! Money to allies, not enemies.
3.2% inflation is not flat prices, that's 60% higher than the target
I wish outlets would stop saying Canada ba k down because Trump increased his tariff threat to 50%. The Canadian official specifically said it was because them and the US agreed to reforming the free trade agreement. Of which they are talking about later today as you correctly pointed out
Poor Donald, he doesnāt get it, 200% tariff will be bad for America
It was the offer to meet that caused Ford to suspend the electricity charge, not the threat of higher tariffs. If the meeting hadnāt been offered, Fordās plan was to simply come back with higher electricity tariffs.
It won't happen too many of rich friends drink wine from Italyš
Trump is like the novel āThe Ugly Americanā (1958) where his ineptitude and innate arrogance and his failure to understand other countries has made the ugly American come true.
Commander-in-Chaos at the helm. Stocks are dropping - AGAIN. "Tariff is a beautiful word." So is 401K, but we're all taking a bath.
Just wait until the tariffs hit
Will if they always pick pn the smokers of cigarettes the boos needs to be even highter so they cant drink beer or mix drinks ether
Instead of trying to increase domestic sales and production by raising tariffs, why not try making products better so that people actually want to buy them?
That was the pre tariff world. Hold onto your seats going forward!
Let her talk stop talking over her.
