comments, ephemera, speculation, etc. (protected political speech and personal opinion) 2020- 2020-03-29 b Viral News - 1984, Redoubled Now I will tell you
the answer to my question. It is this. The Party
seeks power entirely for its own sake. We are
not interested in the good of others; we are
interested solely in power. Not wealth or luxury
or long life or happiness; only power, pure
power. What pure power means you will understand
presently. We are different from all the
oligarchies of the past in that we know what we
are doing. All the others, even those who
resembled ourselves, were cowards and
hypocrites. The German Nazis and Russian
Communists came very close to us in their
methods, but they never had the courage to
recognize their own motives. They pretended,
perhaps they even believed, that they had seized
power unwillingly and for a limited time, and
that just round the corner there lay a paradise
where human beings would be free and equal. We
are not like that. We know that no one ever
seizes power with the intention of relinquishing
it. Power is not a means; it is an end. One does
not establish a dictatorship in order to
safeguard a revolution; one makes the revolution
in order to establish the dictatorship. The
object of persecution is persecution. The object
of torture is torture. The object of power is
power. Now do you begin to understand me?
George Orwell, 1984
