Amerika the Dutiful.

Straight out of “1984”, we are now living in a world of “perpetual war” and “omnipresent surveillance”. 

“Newspeak”  is now pronounced “politically correct”.

“Thought crimes” are now called “racism” and “hate speech”.  Conservative beliefs or opinions also qualify.

America is ruled by the center of a “cult of personality”, who  may actually be an empty sock puppet for the “Party” leaders, and I don’t mean the Democratic Party.

Mainstream media are responsible for the correct propaganda.  The education system is well into the program of “historical revisionism”, rewriting our founding documents in textbooks to suit their socialist dogma.  Programming young students from a young age to believe and obey authority no matter what their parents say.

Politicos and corporate VIP’s engage in “doublethink” on a regular basis, thinking one way for the voters and the consuming public, and another for the elite and government powers that be.

Government agencies have devised their own versions of “memory holes”, like “crashed hard drives”, claims of 5^th Amendment or “executive” privilege.  No one even bothers with the old standby, “I just don’t recall”.

Our “Ministry of Love” is the combined alphabet agencies that swarm against any perceived threat, verbal, printed or physical protest against the Establishment.  With absolutely no compunction or guilt about any methods used.

Our “Ministry of Peace” is called the Department of Defense and is actively engaged in wars of aggression across the globe and has for decades. 

And the “telescreen” is a fact of modern life, when the NSA or any police agency can turn on your computer remotely and activate the web cam to monitor you activities.  As they are probably watching me write this. 

I suppose I can expect a visit from the thought police.

Local municipalities, county and state governments all feel empowered to involved themselves into the everyday activities of ordinary citizens, regardless of rights, privacy or lack of criminal intent.

Police agencies actively encourage their minions to engage in criminal activities, bullying and outright terrorism to further control and revenue generation, without any fear of being actually held responsible for these morally and civilly reprehensible acts. Bill of Rights violations occur on a daily basis.

In the name of security the average American has been reduced to the status of serf, while being told on a daily basis how free they are and how good things “really” are, despite the evidence of their own eyes. 

America the Beautiful is dying, replaced by Amerika the Dutiful.

Aristocrat v. Peasant

According to Webster's:
Peasant (def 2.)  : a usually uneducated person of low social status

Aristocrat (def. 3)   : one believed to be superior of its kind

If you take a step back and examine our modern society with an unbiased view, difficult as that may be, you will note the obvious:
   Although the terms have fallen into disuse, they are quite applicable to our current social arrangement. 
  Our new "self-styled" aristocracy believes itself to be the superior of its kind.  Just a little, or a lot depending on the source, better than the hoi polloi that make the major bulk of Americans. 
  They believe themselves to be smarter, better educated, more attuned to "political realities" and, oh yeah, RICHER than the rest of us.  Ergo, they are superior. 
  Better educated?  Well, most of them went to better schools, but education is more than the school.   Someone has to learn from those schools and not just buy your schoolwork from the local laissez faire nerd.  That is where RICHER comes in handy.  
  Smarter?  Exactly how many of these supposedly smarter upper class types keep stepping on their own appendages publicly and repeatedly.  Bill Clinton, George Bush, Paris Hilton.  The list goes on.
But, truthfully, RICHER comes in handy here as well, because many people are loath to embarass the rich because it might cut into their own profit margin.  Others might hope to profit from these gaffes themselves. 
  More attuned to political realities?   Well, after years of indoctrination by Socialist educators and mentors (i.e. Obama's recent revelations of his  mentors), that is definitely open to question.  
Webster’s (again) 
Reality:  def 2. a (1) : a real event, entity, or state of affairs  (2) : the totality of real things and events.

This obviously does NOT include the current “close your eyes and repeat ‘it MUST be true, it MUST be true” attitude of certain leftist/Liberal/Socialist/Communistic world leaders living in Washington, D.C.

The tactic is the same one Clinton tried, The Big Lie, fine tuned by J. Stalin in post WWII U.S.S.R.  Keep telling the same lie often enough and eventually people will start believing it. 

Reality is not defined by what some aristocrat wants to be true, i.e. Great big Socialist One World Government with a docile proletariat happily toiling away at distasteful tasks, and a kindly, beneficent gentry running things only because they are qualified and better able to handle the complicated tasks involved.

Reality is almost a hundred years of dreadful history highlighting the immense, repeated failure of Socialism to accomplish anything useful besides allow tyrants to massacre millions of their own people in relentless efforts to maintain their power and control over those people.

Economies devastated, famines hushed up, five year plan disasters, mass murder commonplace.  Propaganda works, for a while, but eventually, the truth will out.

EVENTUALLY THE TRUTH WILL OUT.!
