| Politics: Left, Right, and Center National, state, regional, and local politics. Who's doing what to whom, and what you can do about it. How-to-get-action messages are encouraged. "How the government fucked up my life" stories are encouraged. Sharing new methods for cheating on taxes is encouraged. Sample "letters to congresscritters" are encouraged. Apathy and "I can't do anything" posts are discouraged. Left, right, centrist, or any other form of political-economic systems are all up for discussion. Be prepared to defend yourself, or at least have a good line of bullshit ready. Extensive quoting of economists and philosophers is frowned upon. We want to hear what YOU have to say, not what some constipated, impotent, dead guy dreamt up while suffering from the DT's over a hundred years ago thought. |

 Orwell, since he has been mentioned so much
What do you think Orwell would say about the current war if he was still alive?
Also, do you think there are any "Modern day Orwells" worth mentioning/watching?

Re: Orwell, since he has been mentioned so much
'You people are stupid for fighting a war for a Government who'd never fight for you.'
I'm not sure if he would have said that or not, but if he did, I would have agreed 100%.

He wouldn't have said that because he was far better with words.

Re: Orwell, since he has been mentioned so much
I suppose you're right.
But regardless of the structure of the phrase, if it would have been anything similar to what I said above, I would have agreed with it anywyas.
