Was George Orwell Right when he wrote his book 1984?

 It is often said that fiction writers are closer to the truth of events happening, than those that are writing about events that are happening.  It seems that George Orwell and his book 1984 has hit the mark of what appears to be present day reality.

Being offended appears to be the norm, that has caused the taking down of statues, renaming streets and schools, re-writing history, and the establishment of a continual war syndrome.  Censorship has become perfected so that the "politically correct" is in control of what we are to think, speak, dress, and consider what is acceptable and what isn't on a near daily routine.

The public has been manipulated into believing that the government knows what's best for everyone, and from there the party leader has become the controlling figure of the country.  As globalism raises it's ugly head out of the pit of despair, authoritarian rule has become acceptable and preferable than democracy.  While charters of rights and freedoms are being re-written to mean something entirely different, it appears that Joe average public has been lulled into believing that having the government wipe their asses from birth until death is better than liberty and thinking for yourself.

The Artist, the Poet, the free thinkers of society are the enemy of society for they challenge the status quo.  To have an authoritarian government of controls, such individuals are problematic for they raise the awareness of the realities of authoritarian rule.  Much like in the present situation where doctors and scientist who have questioned the direction of the government and so called health experts who toe the government lines, have seen their careers destroyed and the loss of employment, including shutting down their own practices.

The so called "war of false news" is not as up front as people may think.  If it doesn't match the government's agenda, than it is false news.  If the information being presented doesn't match the government's propaganda, it is false news or false information.  The media has fallen into line with the government expectations so that the public is manipulated to accept the propaganda of governments.

Ray Bradbury's book Fahrenheit 451, is yet another extension of Orwell's 1984.  The news media controls the population through the manipulation of information.  The government is always right and the party leaders are in control.  Everything changes constantly and anyone who is a free thinker is a danger to society.

It has become ironic than, that as these two books were praised by liberals and conservative people alike, modern society has ignored the warnings given in the books and have fallen for the traps set by globalists.  Soon, even these two books will be replaced by school boards and library boards and put on the banned and censored list of books as being too revolutionary for young minds to read.
