Politics and society
Orwell's 1984 themes of control, manipulation, the erosion of truth and the erosion of individual freedom, are very relevant today. The power of the elites is denying people freedom, and what is presented as truth is becoming too often an illusion.
"The #billionaire families gave an average total of $10 million each in 2024, an amount roughly equal to what 100,000 typical political donors gave, combined. And that does not count money that #billionaires contributed through #DarkMoney groups that do not have to disclose their donors.
#Money at that scale can be game-changing... spending money wins #elections."
