>the United Kingdom

lolololol

they should screen it 24/7

THAT'LL SHOW EM

All they will accomplish is destroying themselves.

>croatia

cucks

How ironic.
Its also a shit adaptation.

Trying to remind us what America would have been under Hillary. I'm grateful alright Trump supporters you don't have to twist my arm with a showing of this mediocre adaptation. Julia is pretty cute in it though.

>tfw they're not screening it where I life.
I want to see this movie.

Don't these idiots know that 1984 is about the dangers of extreme liberalism and how PC culture can destroy everything

But 1984 is about a globalist authoritarian government using marxist left-wing tactics to oppress the population.
Are they so detached from reality?

>Movie/book about totalitarian communism and government spying
>after Obongo's presidency, one which will be marked by extreme civil surveillance
>to protest Trump

WEWLAD

I don't know why Trump triggered this sentiment when Bush and Obongo were spying on American citizens and have tried to paint a whistleblower as a traitor.

yes

Someone should screen Brave New World. Oh wait, they won't, because that's actually reality now and not the boogieman "big brother" everyone's been programmed to be afraid of.

>marxist left-wing
thats a weird way to spell fascist right-wing

>the left using 1984 to protest against Trump
>when they're the ones that want to shut anything ghat disagrees with them
What could they possibly have mean by this?

because he's literally mexico's hitler

>because that's actually reality now
Have you read the book?

Oh my god, wait till Trump hears about this. He's going to be so blown the fuck out LOL.

>, and

NO

ebix

whatever, it is a horseshoe

10/10 would read that comic again. Brought up some interesting points, I should give Brave New World a read

We have always been at war with Donald Trump

Wait till the liberals get to the part about controlling language

>Fascist right wing state distributes state-produced porn and gin to keep the masses docile

Actually, I've only read the book, I haven't seen the movie.

Have you looked outside?

fun fact: 1984 was funded partially by the CIA as anti-Soviet proppergandhi

They forgot worldwide dystopia in the novel was only made possible by the concentration of power among 3 superstates with the same goal

Wouldn't a Mexican Hitler be Mexican?

They meant that they ignored that the government has been ramping up spying on them for the past 8 years. It's only now a problem. You rayciss.

in what way was the Big Bro government fascist or right wing?

I'll wait

1,984 screenings of what?

I hope they will show Trump during 15 minutes of hate scene.

>Are they so detached from reality?

Yes. It's kinda mind blowing if you think about it. The media is literally doing their own version of the 2 minute hate against Trump, anti-Russia / Eurasia propaganda and all, yet liberals lack the bare minimum self-awareness to even notice something this obvious. The left always wants to LARP as rebels, yet they are always the most mindless, useful idiots of the establishment.

He will be. He's a thin-skinned whiny little bitch. Haven't you noticed?

DUDE I DON'T LIKE THE GOVERNMENT, THAT'S SO 1984

It was written in 1938, CIA was created in 1947

Fucking white people and their obsession with Orwell.

Mein nigga, ya got me good

>actually thinks there were 3 superstates
>actually thinks there was a war
Way to miss the fucking point senpai

Made up bullshit: everything this faggot just posted.

More like in honor of Trump.

He saved us from the lefty controlled media.

They'd unironically start hissing and booing and howling with anger and at the end of the movie, still none of them would make the connection.

>the left spent the last 8 years attempting to usher 1984 into reality
>once they lose elections they go full victim
I guess the irony is left of them

What do white people have to do with any of this? Go race bait in >>Sup Forums

It's almost as if labels like "Marxist," "fascist," "left-wing," and "right-wing" are so overused they can be applied to almost anything

That comic makes some poigiant points, but misses the main thing: Orwell didn't fear things described in 1984, he just took Stalinism and package it into a story.
maybe 1984 feels outdated, because after the fall of Soviet Union, it actually is. And at least some parts of Brave New World still resonante today. But then again, where's eugenics -one of the corner stone of BNW?

>it's another thinly-veiled Sup Forums thread
Is it really that hard for you faggots to stay in your containment board? Why are you posting on Sup Forums anyway? You should know by now that art is inherently liberal. Why don't you cucks go talk about white genocide or something?

>triggered trumpkuks

kek

Wasn't 1984 about communism though

Probably bc the donald and his cabinet are fascist doublespeaking niggers.

>I don't understand political ideologies

redditors really need to leave

the movie not the book, isn't that what we're discussing here?
prove me wrong. It's true

>t. infowars historian

What? People don't know what they're even fighting for or talking about? WHAT MADNESS IS THIS, user?

>not Brazil

The methods of the governnment in 1984 are outdated, not their goal and their use of propaganda and censoring language. That's as topical today as ever.

Hi plebbit, welcome to Sup Forums. Enjoy your stay.

Is Croatia just bored or something?

Never been to Sup Forums, I just thought the MOVIE 1984 being brought up again was relevant to the "television and film" board.

Yes it was.
Now I don't really know what they - the people screening this - are trying to convey, but it's hard to tie Trump into this. Unless it's about net-neutrality, which was just revoked. But I'm not sure how much did Trump actually had to do with it, it's more that he just let it happen, than actually wanting it to happen.

It exercised totalitarian control over all aspects of public life? It emphasized complete obedience to the authority of the state? It heavily utilized nationalist propaganda and intertwined 'the state' with 'the nation'?

Am I the only one who still remembers the phrase "free peach" that was trending maybe a year? One could almost say this was "memory holed", huh?

You've got a point there, but creating an artificial genetic hierarchy is pretty much the only step we need to take before we've gone full BNW. Just about everything else is already here

infowars is not pro-Soviet, dolt.

It was about totalitarianism.
Have none of you read the book? O'Brien literally states that both the German Nazis and Russian Communists came close to the Party in their methods, but didn't realize the nature of their motives, which is to maintain strict social control.

If you honestly think 1984 was a takedown of a specific regime, you completely missed the point.

What's with this meme that everything Hitler ever said was wrong?

Doublespeak turned out be really relevant.

>Trump's cabinet is full of white people
>Trump's cabinet is full of niggers

Pick one

I really hate it. I don't know why it's happening in the UK.

But I'm not going to complain against it. Don't correct your opponent when he's making a mistake. They're just dooming themselves. 1984 could apply to right or left. Orwell himself based it on the bullshit of the left and was clever enough to show why it's attractive to people if you switched it to the right.

That quote was said Gregor strasser who believed hitler was socialist you fucking idiot. Do you believe everything Facebook tells you

1984 is a good example of fascism because it shows a completely totalitarian dictatorship led by Big Brother. In fact, this dictatorship is so totalitarian that it forces nationalist ideas into the minds of its citizens through intense propaganda, completely unlimited surveillance and torture. While such fascist regimes as Hitler’s Germany and Mussolini’s Italy didn’t use such intense totalitarian techniques, in part due to a lack of technology, but also due to the fact that the rest of the world hadn’t devolved to such a state, as it has in 1984, they did institute similarly gruesome techniques, such as the mass killings in Nazi Concentration Camps. These aimed to similarly reduce anti-national sentiment, so as to reform a nation that purely supported Nazi ideals, as it seems Big Brother hopes to do.

>the scene from BNW where people get fucked up on drugs and watch cuck porn in cinema
Truly Huxley was a visionary

It isn't. The point is Antifa is far-left and regular goes out to "curb stomp Nazi's" when they're ideology matches to Hitler's own sentiments himself. People don't know what they're fighting for.

This makes it more autistic

God, this is such an indication how Trump won. How complacent and self-congratulatory the mainstream left is by doing nothing, but using a front as a means of "protest" in the loosest sense of the word in order to provoke some sort of change, without doing ANYTHING of value.

>It isn't

What isn't?

1984 works as a critique of totalitarianism in general, that's why it's somewhat relevant (though it gets exaggerated) in many situations where corrupt authorities overextend and abuse their power

>you believe in the same economic theory as someone
>therefore you agree with their extreme nationalism
what a stupid person
most niggers have better reasoning

Nice, I can't wait to let off all this pent up rage and hate after watching this movie. All these Trump hate pieces in the media just isn't enough for me.

BTFO

Celebrating the fact that the US are no longer slaves to a democrat nigger.

Strasser was still a Nazi. He might have been a Left-Wing Nazi, but he was still a Nazi. There was a reason his fellows got killed.

But even if that wasn't relevant, did you miss the point of my comment that people don't know what they're fighting for, or are you so fucking dense I'll have to explain that to you as well?

Mass media being a tool of the establishment party to the point where they were reporting on intelligence leaks from an Obama top aide and are now refusing to admit wrong doing is far more scary than Donald Trump to me.

Hitler's economic policies aren't the Nazi ideologies that Antifa protest. Do you have a brain?

That they didn't read 1984

Someone is triggered alright.

It doesn't seem to be the Plumpfkins who are terrified of discussion and bantz.

Nah, they're as black as they come. Their hearts and souls anyway, which is how a judge someone's niggardness.

>live in """GREAT""" Britain
>get filmed the entire way to the theatre
>WOOOOW FUCKING AMERICANS

Fucking this

1984 is NOT a warning story or some sorta tale meant to prevent communism. It's just a sardonic story of stalinism, depicting very well what it was and why it failed. Ditto for Animal Farm - Animal Farm is just a continuation of the point. It's like a guy trying to explain something to you and after he's done it, he also finds a very good parallel/example.

They're both about human nature more than anything else and how utopia is not possible because it implies complete selflessness and that discounts humans from achieving it.

Honestly, if Orwell were alive today he'd probably be heavily anti-liberal, because they're the ones going on about their utopian vision of a globalist world, which is exactly what the communists did.

yeah youre talking bollocks.

Well done. You just understood my point about people not knowing what they're fighting for.

Neither, his cabinet is full of Jews

Media didn't report that Obama was bad.
Sheep only know what to think based on what they are told.

Maybe Im biased because Im Spanish and we have lived through a right-wing fascist totalitarian regime. But so happens that Orwen came here to fight along the republican (left-wing) side. You could probably refute anything I have to say about the novel so I'll just leave you a quote from Orwell himself

>The Spanish war and other events in 1936-37 turned the scale and thereafter I knew where I stood. Every line of serious work that I have written since 1936 has been written, directly or indirectly, against totalitarianism and for democratic socialism, as I understand it.

You're the one who doesn't understand what Antifa is fighting for.

Well at least you don't judge people on the colour of their skin, keep being you user

Hitler is literally pure evil, he was not a man but a devil who wanted to eradicate the enlightened chosen people of god
at least if the media is to be believed

Yes because everybody in the UK says WOOOOW FUCKING AMERICANS. Just like everybody in USA says WOOOW FUCK DRUMPF.
