Part 2: Chapter 9 - Nineteen Eighty-Four
"And in the general hardening of outlook that set in round about 1930, practices which had been long abandoned, in some cases for hundreds of years—imprisonment without trial, the use of war prisoners as slaves, public executions, torture to extract confessions, the use of hostages and the deportation of whole populations—not only became common again, but were tolerated and even defended by people who considered themselves enlightened and progressive."
Sincere apologies for the lateness of this. This is a beast of a chapter (that I love to be fair) and I was really burned out from finished another audiobook for a publisher along with juggling an influx of writing work and trying to sell my house! Thank you for bearing with me, normal service shall now resume.
