The Left Makes ‘1984’ Its Playbook for 2024
7th August 2024
The book “1984” is supposed to be a warning. Today’s leftists are using it as an instruction manual.
George Orwell’s classic novel is set in a dystopian world where Big Brother controls the population through information control and surveillance. See if any of this sounds familiar.
“Doublethink means the power of holding two contradictory beliefs in one’s mind simultaneously, and accepting both of them.”
During her career, especially when running for president in 2020, Kamala Harris took some radical positions. She praised efforts to defund the police. She once insinuated U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or ICE, was comparable to the Ku Klux Klan and suggested the agency should be rebuilt “from scratch.”
Harris also wanted to decriminalize border crossings. She cosponsored the Green New Deal. She supported a mandatory gun buyback program, eliminating private insurance, and paying reparations. She was in favor of banning fracking and plastic straws.
Those policies play great in San Francisco, but not in battleground states. Not to worry. Harris has flip-flopped on at least five major policy positions since becoming Democrats‘ presumptive nominee.
