In response to “In less than four months we’ve been transformed into Socialist obedient servants

As Eric Blair, aka George Orwell, wrote in 1984 —

“Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.”

And that is the point. This is not just about this last 4 months — this is a process about control, mind control!

Change history, change the language, change scientific methods, teach the kids the new version, get generational animosity so that the state, not parents or religion, are seen and believed to be the saviors. Keep the populous uneasy, keep the hysteria going. And always keep repeating the lies.

Control the past and thus control the future.

Do the changes incrementally with little things — a few temperature records that the majority of people don’t care about. Build from that small beginning — changing people’s outlook about the climate, about energy, about manufacturing, about employment, wealth and happiness through broadcasting emotional sophistry and lies. But never stop repeating the lies.

Ensure that the language keeps changing — make older and harsher but more accurately descriptive words and phrases politically, socially ‘incorrect’ to use. Create new word, phrases, and idioms, using them to repeat the lies.

All the time ostracise, censor, and deplatform the neigh-sayers, those who rail against the consensus, through social engineering of sentiments against them. Silencing those tedious but rational types who can with clear eyes, look to historic and scientific facts and mathematics with logic and evidence that counters the official truth. And Keep repeating the lies.

Then move to unrest some of the populous, and with them create a means to have statues, monuments, street names removed or renamed, to make them become more ‘socially acceptable’. Keep the violence just high enough, and the police held back enough, so that the rest of the population are cowed into obeying whatever the state requires. All the while repeating the lies continuously.

Historical details will be rewritten within a whole new, re-written archive of truth — with the some of the past made to look worse than it was, some historical ‘facts’ erased, and some events, the ones the elites like will be emphasised and celebrated, pushed to the fore. And on it will go on with no big fuss. Small discrete changes slowly taking over how people think, talk, write, and act.

And keep repeating the lies.

And throughout always ensure that the new generation is taught the new version of the ‘official’ truth — keeping the inter-generational rift festering.
All the while repeating the lies!

China – “Highest floodwater in recorded history”- At least 33 rivers reaching record-high levels

Wuhan declares flood red alert. Officials worried that it may overwhelm their masterpiece, the 3 Gorges Dam (the world’s largest & most complicated river anti-flooding system). Hampering supply chains for COVID-19 relief products in other parts of the world.

Large parts of central and eastern China were reeling yesterday from the worst floods in decades.

The city of Wuhan and the provinces of Anhui, Jiangxi and Zhejiang declared red alerts as heavy rain swelled rivers and lakes.

The Three Gorges reservoir, which has been holding back more water to try to ease downstream flood risks, was more than 10m higher than its warning level, the Poyang Lake in Jiangxi Province was 2.5m higher than its warning level and farther east, and the water level at Tai Lake near Shanghai rose to nearly 1m higher than its safe level.

The summer rainy season brings floods to China almost every year, but these are record-breaking.

ABC (Australian Broadcasting Corporation) reports at least 140 people have died in central and eastern China as floodwaters rise. In weeks, 28,000 homes have been destroyed in the Yangtze River region, with at least 33 rivers reaching record-high levels.

As China counts the costs of its most punishing flood season in more than three decades, the role played by the massive and controversial Three Gorges Dam — designed to help tame the Yangtze River — has come under fresh scrutiny.

“One of the major justifications for the Three Gorges Dam was flood control, but less than 20 years after its completion we have the highest floodwater in recorded history,” said David Shankman, a geographer with the University of Alabama who studies Chinese floods.

The People’s Daily newspaper said earlier this week that 1.5 million people have already evacuated from flood-prone regions.

Vice Minister of Emergency Management Zheng Guoguan told reporters Monday some regions around the Yangtze river have recorded the highest rainfall in over a half-century.
