Your dystopian thought for the morning from Borepatch:
Using The Big Eraser
A cynical guy would think that the recent events in Charlottesville were orchestrated, with law enforcement standing aside, counter-protesters attacking protesters to provoke a response, and the inevitable outcome of lit matches and gasoline playing out.
But no matter, the Confederate memorials are coming down. A couple of years ago it was the battle flag, now it's time for the next step. All across the country, big diesel powered erasers are going to remove history.
It won't stop there, of course.
The book burning is coming.
Orwell's 1984 was supposed to be a warning, not an instruction manual.
