A parable and a warning for our time?  | | I'd like to reopen some old discussions on this excellent film. Although the comic was written about Thatcherite Britain, the film feels strangely prophetic in a 1984 way. Any thoughts?

One can hope that it doesn't turn into a self-fulfilling prophecy, but rather that it works as a warning for us to take heed in order to prevent it from coming true.

| | 2. goapples (112) | 7 months ago | Blowing up parliament isn't a great prospect but if avoids a society like 1984, but it has the strange irony that parliament was meant to stop the monarchy from controlling so much power, yet it turned into what it wanted to stop. Right now the society that is in the film is no where near happening and i don't see any extreme parties gaining any majority any time too soon.
