That brings to mind this classic..

Today, we celebrate the first glorious anniversary of the Information Purification Directives. We have created, for the first time in all history, a garden of pure ideology—where each worker may bloom, secure from the pests purveying contradictory truths. Our Unification of Thoughts is more powerful a weapon than any fleet or army on earth. We are one people, with one will, one resolve, one cause. Our enemies shall talk themselves to death, and we will bury them with their own confusion. We shall prevail!

They should re-run this commercial for iPhone 7. "On September 24th, Apple Computer will introduce iPhone 7. And you'll see why 2017 won't be like 1984."

Just a nitpick, but 1984 by G. Orwell was first published in 1949 what makes it even more impressive.
