In Orwell's 1984, the totalitarian government divided control into four Ministries—each named the opposite of its true function.
The Ministry of Love inflicted torture. It "corrected" thoughtcrime, punished dissent, and broke those who questioned the Party. Love meant obedience through pain.
When people are arrested for social media posts, prosecuted for silent prayer, and investigated for "non-crime hate incidents," the machinery of thoughtcrime enforcement is already here. Different language. Same control.
This vintage badge features the faceless bureaucrat—the official who punishes wrongthink and calls it justice.
Room 101 awaits those who refuse to comply.
