    “1984” by George Orwell.

    Key tenets include:

    1. Big Brother Is Watching You: This is the omnipresent government surveillance.

    2. War Is Peace: This paradoxical slogan highlights the manipulation of truth.

    3. Freedom Is Slavery: Suggests that individual freedom is an illusion.

    4. Ignorance Is Strength: Encourages the populace to accept false narratives.

    5. Thoughtcrime: The idea that thinking against the Party is criminal.

    6. Doublethink: Holding two contradictory beliefs simultaneously.

    7. Newspeak: Language designed to limit freedom of thought.

    8. The Party’s absolute control over truth and reality.

    Seems like a how to guide for the right imo.
