The true official language of America today is George Orwell’s Double Speak, the ability to simultaneously believe and profess two diametrically opposed concepts. One might call it the “Yeah, but” syndrome. It was enshrined by the Founding Fathers with conflicting tenets and words in the Declaration of Independence and the United States Constitution, and, spilling across multiple sectors, has become the lingua terra of all American life. There is no escaping “double thinking” everything. The result is that truth no longer has solid substance, reality no steady footing. One can shape it into any convenience one wishes it to be. Whatever one chooses to believe is all that matters. This is steeped throughout political policy, conventional morality, religious doctrine, and commercial advertising. “The more you buy, the more you save” is a prime example. Both spending and saving are regarded as being true. The simple reality is that you are spending, not saving. The free market, money is free speech, and waging war for peace each amplify conflicting words working in opposition. Life is complicated but a universal truth is that feeling powerless is a frightening, all-powerful emotion, and all stops must be pulled out to feel being right and in control. Real power is not so easily attained.
