More From George Orwell

Whatever is funny is subversive, every joke is ultimately a custard pie... a dirty joke is a sort of mental rebellion.
Funny Dirty Naughty
God forbid we should ever be twenty years without such a rebellion... we have had thirteen states independent for eleven years. there has been one rebellion. that comes to one rebellion in a century and a half, for each state. what country before ever existed a century and a half without a rebellion.

I have become a giant fan of the testing process, especially with a comedy. i mean, they tell you what's funny. it's almost tailor-made for people who shoot the way we shoot, trying a million different options and versions of things. because the audience doesn't laugh at a joke, we put in another joke. if they don't laugh at the next joke, we put in another joke. you just keep doing them and you can get the movie to the point where every joke is funny, if you have enough options in the can.

A dirty joke is not, of course, a serious attack on morality, but it is a sort of mental rebellion, a momentary wish that things were otherwise.
Dirty Humor Wish
Well people love to go dirty and stuff like that. it's funny, because even really dirty things can kind of inspire, but all things inspire really dirty improv and monologues. so then really dirty things can inspire the exact opposite. it's kind of a crapshoot.

Rebellion against technology and civilization is real rebellion, a real attack on the values of the existing system. but the green anarchists, anarcho-primitivists, and so forth (the "ga movement") have fallen under such heavy influence from the left that their rebellion against civilization has to great extent been neutralized. instead of rebelling against the values of civilization, they have adopted many civilized values themselves and have constructed an imaginary picture of primitive societies that embodies these civilized values.

That's how a thing starts out real then ends up just an idea.
Real Ideas Ends
It's not the 'nice' guy who brings about real social change. 'nice' guys look nice because they're conforming. it's the 'bad' guys, who only look nice a hundred years later, that are the real dynamic force in social evolution.
Real Nice Years
To save a life is a real and beautiful thing. to make a home for the homeless, yes, it is a thing that must be good; whatever the world may say, it cannot be wrong.
Beautiful Real Home
Friendship, then, like the other natural loves, is unable to save itself. in reality, because it is spiritual and therefore faces a subtler enemy, it must, even more wholeheartedly than they, invoke the divine protection if it hopes to remain sweet. for consider how narrow its true path is. is must not become what the people call a "mutual admiration society"; yet if it is not full of mutual admiration, of appreciative love, it is not friendship at all.
