Dear Editor,

Isn’t wonderful that we will soon have a “Misinformation Governance Board.” I wonder if it will be housed in a large pyramid of glass with the slogans, “war is peace” “freedom is slavery” and “ignorance is strength” Oh, won’t it be wonderful to have all thought and speech controlled by “big brother”… er, I mean the Democrat Party and the Elites. Come, come, ladies and gentlemen, we low humans out of the primordial ooze cannot think for ourselves let alone speak free thoughts … heavens no! Be gone Elon Musk! You are Goldstein! We need an elite managerial class to control everyday citizens’ thoughts. All hail Biden, big business, big banks, big tech, big media … all hail Big Brother. What is your freedom of speech when the World Economic Forum and Klaus Schwab announce slogans like “you will own nothing, and be happy” of course the ones I alluded to above will own everything and be happier.

What will it matter to you if you are deemed a useless human being and will be fed drugs and video games to keep you calm until you slowly waste into nothingness and death as proposed by Yural Noah Harrari, a forward thinker highly praised by Klaus Schwab, Bill Gates and Barack Obama. All hail Biden, I mean Schwab, I mean the Democrat party. I guess it will depend on who the Ministry of Truth … excuse me …the Misinformation Governance Board, will require us to praise that day or week. Thank goodness we are raising children who are taught “what to think” and not “how to think.” My gosh …we would have the possibility of developing free thinkers who would promote, dare I say, free thought. No, we must stuff their minds with gender and diversity studies, radical revolutionary theory, CRT and white guilt. All hail Nancy Pelosi! Isn’t it wonderful how we scream my body my choice when it comes to abortion and yet we hear crickets when it came to mandates for the COVID-19 shot. Oops, my bad … I’m not practicing “doublethink,” which is holding two contradictory thoughts at the same time … silly me. I might be taken to the “ministry of love” as Winston was in George Orwell’s “1984.” Don’t worry elites … they’ll fix me there. And once they remove me from the “ministry of love” I can be thrown into the world as a proper little cog of the totalitarian leadership that has taken over our world and country since 2020. Yes, I love big brother! If you are wondering what all these references mean and my mocking of the elites please read 1984 by George Orwell, before the “ministry of truth”, I mean the Misinformation Governance Board removes it.
