"If there is hope . . . it lies in the proles"

George Orwell said this through Winston Smith in his dystopian view of the future.

The Party, or parties in our case, will never change the game in which they play and the means by which they rule us. I am not advocating a revolution, but I am continually banging my head against the wall as I am let down by the Democratic representatives on a near daily basis. If the party leaves the party's long formed ideals what are we, the people, going to do with OUR PARTY?

"Until the become conscious they will never rebel, and until after they they have rebelled they cannot become conscious." —pg 61, referring the proles

How long before we become conscious? How long before we wake up?
