Not even close to the horrors of an Orwellian society and saying it is is an insult to the characters in those books. It isn't great though, and it's heading in a troubling direction
I think the characters in the book will forgive as that's a work of fiction and they are not real. That's like saying I insulted Bugs Bunny for having big teeth. We'll get through this calamity. ✌🏻
I'm the guy that gets offended on behalf of what ever I want.
I'd say it's heading in an orwellian direction...
Oh no! Wouldn't want to insult those fictional characters
