In his nightmarish dystopian novel ‘1984’, George Orwell introduced the concept of ‘Newspeak’, a propagandistic language whereby a totalitarian regime sought to diminish the range of speech for political purposes.
It’ll come as news to no one that for years, the loony left has sought to foist its own version of ‘Newspeak’ onto us. Having lost the economic argument, they’ve sought to move the battle into the area of cultural values, and have blighted the world with ‘identity politics’. As part and parcel of this, Cultural Marxists have set out to forge a politically charged language as a weapon to discredit and intimidate opponents, and to police people’s opinions. They aim to control the agenda by controlling the terms of expression; do that, and they control YOU.
Take a simple, everyday example. You think the idea of a sex-change ‘Dr Who’ is against the programme’s ethos, that it’s simply daft. Oh no,no, no. According to the programme’s former supremo Steven Muppet, sorry Moffat, your thinking’s not ‘radical’, not ‘progressive’. You’ve got a problem with your outlook grandad, things have moved on. A mundane example perhaps, but things can get a lot more vicious and sinister. Are you bemused by the whole issue of ‘fluid gender’ and ‘transgenderism’, and find it all a bit, well, odd? Be very careful in what you say, or you’ll be hounded for being ‘transphobic’. Concerned about the changes that mass immigration is bringing to your community and your culture, and worried about the impact it has on housing, education and other vital services? ‘Racist! bigot! xenophobe! No platform for hate speech!’ Yes, free speech is ‘hate speech’ unless you sing from the loony left songsheet.
‘Newspeak’ has proved to be a potent weapon when it comes to closing down expression of any view which is at odds with the prevailing orthodoxy of the loony left. Who wants to be smeared as an Islamophobe and a far right extremist for making the perfectly reasonable suggestion that Muslims seem reluctant to integrate and engage with Western values?
Happily, all is not lost it seems. I’d argue that loony tunes lefties have, as John Major put it, ‘over-egged the pudding’. Ironically, their weapon has been blunted by bludgeoning over-use. Just as no one is influenced these days by terms such as ‘new’, ‘improved’, ‘best ever’ etc, so familiarity with ‘Newspeak’ has bred contempt; its persistent use has become a cliché, and the fruitcakes have ended up shooting themselves in the foot.
As the outcome of the 2019 election demonstrated, people will only tolerate being referred to as bigoted, ignorant and stupid for so long. Ultimately the silent majority found its voice, and showed the finger to these sneering bullies. Predictably, the hissy cry- babies will continue to spit their dummies out, stamp their little feet and wave their Socialist Worker placards while screeching ‘fascist!’ in all directions, but increasingly, they’ll be pissing into the wind.
Don’t bother trying to engage with the cunts; they don’t want to hear your view…they want to ram theirs down your throat. If one of them tells you to ‘check your privilege’, invite them to check their arsehole to see if they can find their own head up it, laugh, then tell them to fuck off. Speak up loudly and we can marginalise these fuckwits as they seek to marginalise us. Maybe ‘cancel culture’ just got cancelled.

Let’s hear it one more time for this morbidly obese, desperate, middle-aged woman, on her last go-around in her attempts to curry favour with the common people (as she sees them) who could give her the leadership of the Labour party. I rather feel the old bag dropped the ball today however, since she believes “we” should continue to fund Mr & Mrs. Hewitt’s extravagent lifestyle when they leave Royalty half behind:
