1984
BESTSELLING BOOK AT AMAZON

In a blast from the past, a book that is almost 70 years old - 1984 - hit #1 on the sales list at Amazon. This election has created chaos in every industry and books aren't an exception. My thought is this - if you haven't read this book recently (or not at all) - purchase a copy or borrow it from the library and read it. The importance of this book can't be overstated.

Orwell, blessed as he was with foresight, or was it hindsight, was not able to foresee the rise of social media nor the use of cellphone cameras. Many years ago, Anarchist theorists called dynamite the great equalizer, dynamite has been supplanted by Twitter and Sina Weibo. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sina_Weibo. In 30 years the world will see instantaneous, peer to peer, contextually accurate (able to tell if one agrees or not) communication. My prediction is that 21st century will see the resolution of the age old question of oligarchy versus direct democracy. Social media will do for us what the printing press did for the 15th century: it brought down the Catholic Church- the worlds' oligarch of the time. Just saying. Ralph Scenic
