In accordance to the principles of doublethink, it does not matter if the war is not real, or when it is, that victory is not possible. the war is not meant to be won. it is meant to be continuous. the essential act of modern warfare is the destruction of the produce of human labour. a hierarchical society is only possible on the basis of poverty and ignorance. in principle, the war effort is always planned to keep society on the brink of starvation. the war is waged by the ruling group against its own subjects, and its object is not victory over eurasia or eastasia, but to keep the very structure of society intact.

More From Michael Moore

A hierarchical society is only possible on the basis of poverty and ignorance, this new version is the past and no different past can ever have existed. in principle the war effort is always planned to keep society on the brink of starvation. the war is waged by the ruling group against its own subjects and its object is not the victory over either eurasia or east asia but to keep the very structure of society intact.

The war is waged against its own subjects and its object is not the victory...but to keep the very structure of society intact.

The essence of oligarchical rule is not father-to-son inheritance, but the persistence of a certain world-view and a certain way of life, imposed by the dead upon the living. a ruling group is a ruling group so long as it can nominate its successors. the party is not concerned with perpetuating its blood but with perpetuating itself. who wields power is not important, provided that the hierarchical structure remains always the same.
Father Son Persistence
The ideas of the ruling class are in every epoch the ruling ideas, i.e. the class which is the ruling material force of society, is at the same time its ruling intellectual force. the class which has the means of material production at its disposal, has control at the same time over the means of mental production, so that thereby, generally speaking, the ideas of those who lack the means of mental production are subject to it. the ruling ideas are nothing more than the ideal expression of the dominant material relationships, the dominant material relationships grasped as ideas.

Joblessness is a weapon of mass destruction. poverty is a weapon of mass destruction. hunger is a weapon of mass destruction. poor health care is a weapon of mass destruction. poor education is a weapon of mass destruction. discrimination is a weapon of mass destruction. let us abolish such weapons of mass destruction here at home.

It was curious to think that the sky was the same for everybody, in eurasia or eastasia as well as here. and the people under the sky were also very much the same--everywhere, all over the world, hundreds or thousands of millions of people just like this, people ignorant of one another's existence, held apart by walls of hatred and lies, and yet almost exactly the same--people who had never learned to think but were storing up in their hearts and bellies and muscles the power that would one day overturn the world.

Come senators, congressmen, please heed the call, don't stand in the doorway, don't block up the hall, for he that gets hurt, will be he who has stalled, the battle outside ragin', will soon shake your windows and rattle your walls, for the times they are a-changin'...

In school, i learned about artists and how they were free to express themselves. i was allergic to conformity, and the lifestyle attracted me. i wanted to express myself in a way that slammed people up against the wall.
