Is this George Orwell's 1984 come to haunt us ?

[OneeyedJohn]

If u were in a coma last December and awoke now to be told what is happening across the world, then I am sure you would not believe it.

State of emergency declarations, lockdowns, curfews, alcohol bans, no flights, restricted travel even in your own country, gatherings of more than two people not allowed, recreation and outside exercise severely limited. and punishment for breaking these arbitrary rules and restrictions.

 

Did George Orwell really predict all this ?

[OneMoreFarang]

No, George Orwell did not predict anything like that.

[Kwasaki]

Whose that geezer.? 

[Traubert]

No, because Orwell was a fantasist not a seer.

Perhaps you never woke up and just dreaming in your coma ????

Orwell didn't really predict any of that stuff in the novel.  He did write about many other things that have been happening quietly for years now.  You should revisit the text.
