How the British Empire Created and Killed George Orwell |
2020-05-22 |
[BLUF] [Strategic Culture Foundation] The truth clearly was that Orwell never forgave himself for what he did as a young agent of empire in Burma. Even his literally suicidal decision to go to the most primitive, cold, wet and poverty-stricken corner of creation in a remote island off Scotland to finish "1984" in isolation before he died was consistent with the merciless punishments he had inflicted on himself all his life since leaving Burma. The conclusion is clear: For all the intensity of George Orwell’s experiences in Spain, his passion for truth and integrity, his hatred of the abuse of power did not originate from his experiences in the Spanish Civil War. They all flowed directly from his own actions as an agent of the British Empire in Burma in the 1920s: Just as his creation of the Ministry of Truth flowed directly from his experience of working in the Belly of the Beast of the BBC in the early 1940s.

#3 This is the kind of hyperbole that forms the basis for the fake news pandemic. Every one writing these days seems to have an obsession with producing the most over the top, dire descriptions for any and every little conundrum. It really is tiring to wade through the swamp to look for rationality. |

#2 I'm picturing a game show... I'll take Geography for $500, Alex. It is known as most primitive, cold, wet, and poverty-stricken corner of Creation. Uh, what is Scotland? |
