The CIA has its own Orwellian " Ministry of Truth " in the New York Times


Is there any politically literate person in the West over 40 who has not read George Orwell's nightmare novel " 1984. " ? It was an ideological super weapon against " godless communism " ( headquartered in Stalinist Russia ) during the Cold War era.

All the reactionaries and phony liberals wanted to forget that Orwell himself was a dedicated socialist all his adult life on the democratic Left. Orwell wrote that " socialism should be obvious ".

It was not " obvious " to the Democratic National Committee who found even " socialist " Democrat Bernie Sanders ' " political revolution " to be ideologically offensive to the Hillary Democrats.

The first ominous sign of the New McCarthyism in the United States was DNC attacks on Sanders supporters in the primaries , They had " a propensity for violence ".

It ended rather sadly with Bernie Sanders - like the broken Winston Smith in " 1984 " - declaring his love and devotion to " Big Sister " , Hillary Clinton. She had the clear support of Establishment USA - which includes the CIA.

The CIA now has its own " Ministry of Truth " in the New York Times.
