I’m that person who is so out-of-the-loop when it comes to pop music that-if you invited me to a ‘1989′ party- I’d turn up dressed up like a raver from the year 1989.
Like, doublethink is a miraculously difficult concept to understand. It's the act of taking in a new piece of information, subconsciously knowing and remembering a contradicting piece of information and yet -- instead of being hit with cognitive dissonance or 'the backfire effect' -- accepting both as true. In a world where the accepted political broadcasted agenda and its reports change on a whim and the records must reflect 'what currently is' as 'always have been', and your nation's war is both a series of wars rapidly altering in target and an eternal battle, it's necessary for both total political control and an unresistant mind.
It's impossible to think that it could really happen in practice, and that someone could doublespeak their way with it until you remember that Donald Trump's Twitter exists.
