What kind of history will a totalitarian prison planet write, I wonder.


1984 will be banned as being too inspirational, perhaps?


1984 is not inspirational, it's cautionary. The main character has already lost from the first page of the book.


I tend to disagree. 1984 seems the playbook for the majority of politicians. For them, it's inspirational.
