I have been rereading 1984.

I quoted a couple of passages of 1984 on Spinster and had someone quote some sexist passages in his other books. It irritated me that the person totally missed the point of my posting the passage.

First of all, he is a male. I can’t say that he wasn’t a product of his time, because he was. In some ways, with the denial of female happening today, of course, some things have not changed at all, perhaps it is even worse now. Biology is being denied.

Sexism has always been with us. It is particularly virulent today and after Reddit banned Gender Critical for wrong-think, it is even more relevant today.

I have quoted Orwell specifically, because in 1984, he was prescient of the nightmare future that we now have as women.

The all-powerful trans mafia that rules the world with the ideology of Ingsoc—doublethink, memory hole, unperson, thoughtcrime, Newspeak, Thought Police, Room 101, Big Brother—they are instantly recognizable signs of the nightmare future present, that women now find themselves.

“Being in a minority, even in a minority of one, did not make you mad. There was truth and there was untruth, and if you clung to the truth even against the whole world, you were not mad.” ― George Orwell, 1984
