Anyone else watch the movie "Orwell 2+2 = 5" yet?
I read 1984 about 40 years ago, so I had forgotten how prescient so much of it is. Think I'll go back and reread it.
Once you have created a post-truth society where there are no facts, no baseline, no shared reality other than the one that can be made up on the spot to suit those in power, then you can tell big lies just as easily as you can tell little lies.

> Fascists erase violent history for one main reason—to repeat that historyThis is why the 'right to archive' trumps both copyright and the 'right to be forgotten'.

They said too many employers have disregarded safety protocols.
Too many companies broke the law.
Too many people didn’t do the right thing.
Apparently, expecting them to do the right thing posed an unreasonable burden on them
