That scratchpaper in the previous post contains the word "doublespeak," which a caller used in a question. Could everybody please reread "1984" and get the terminology straight?
There's no "doublespeak" in the Big Brother regime. There's "newspeak" and "doublethink." Here's a searchable text of "1984" to help you.
It matters! It means something! Don't muddle Orwell with the ordinary term "doubletalk."
