Doublethink & Crimestop | George Orwell's 1984

This video explores how Totalitarians force individuals to engage in Doublethink, to conduct a war against the truth, suppressing through Crimestop or Self-Censorship it to make it serve them. I reference George Orwell's 1984, pages 318 to 320, or from Part III, Chapter 4. I also talk about the totalising control, accepting the illogical, altering the past, rejecting truth and facts, nihilism, self-surveillance, censorship and suppression. Ultimately, you find all of this as a form of the ‘athleticism of mind’. 0:00 0:14 Context 0:32 Freedom is Slavery 1:51 Acceptance (of the Illogical) 3:00 Controlling the Past 4:32 What is Truth? 5:40 Doubt 6:04 Nihilism 6:54 Crimestop 8:12 Self-Surveillance 8:42 Self-Censorship 9:50 Welcoming Death? 10:09 What say YOU? #1984, #Doublethink, #Crimestop
