So the future isn't a boot stamping on a human face, forever. It's a person
in a beige business outfit advocating beige policies that nobody wants (but
nobody can quite articulate a coherent alternative to) with a false mandate
obtained by performing rituals of representative democracy that offer as
much actual choice as a Stalinist one-party state. And resistance is
futile, because if you succeed in overthrowing the beige dictatorship, you
will become that which you opposed.
