    Some of you didn’t spend your childhoods reading dystopian science fiction, and it shows.

    Key word here is fiction because it’s fucking made up

      But also none of the dystopian fiction I read as a child had chanting slogans until you believed them as any sort of a plot point. Like, that just isn’t a thing in any of the dystopian fiction I’ve read, and I’ve read some amount. I do not know what she’s on about here.

        She just means newspeak from 1984. But because she doesn’t want to say 1984 because she knows she’ll be ridiculed for doing so, she attributes it to “dystopian fiction” as a whole.
