This was unexplicably changed back to an older version and then silliness was added; revert to last agreed-upon version

:In 1984, "Newspeak" is the new [[totalitarian]] language which replaces "Oldspeak" (English as we know it) The aim of Newspeak is to narrow the range of thought so that an individual could not even think critical or [[subversion|subversive]] thoughts. Potentially critical terms like "freedom" are formally defined into their conceptual opposites ("[[freedom]] is [[slavery]]"), or are simply eliminated from the [[dictionary]] and everyday [[language]]. In this manner, critical language would wither away as the number of words which allow differentiation and critique was increasingly reduced. <ref>http://www.uta.edu/huma/illuminations/kell13a.htm</ref>

[[Communists]] and other [[godless liberal|godless]] [[leftists]] are known to use [[Official English|language]] in a way which verges on doublethink. Like Winston of ''[[1984]]'', conservatives and other true Americans fight against the [[Liberal bias|liberal media]] and other liberals who use doublethink to further their agendas. Conservapedia is in the forefront in this fight. Doublethink is not allowed here. Newspeak is not allowed either. British English is allowed instead, but frowned upon.
