Ministry of Truth Daily Update - 02 Apr 2025 - Interpretive Dance

 

Interpretive Dance

In lieu of winning elections, alternative protests against administration policies are required.  Protest dances, anti-DOGE actions, and "no spend" days bring attention and moral standing, while showing how upset the participants are, even if some renegade social media faces think they are stupid when people are actually dying.

Ministry of Truth Daily Update - 30 Oct 2024 - Mask Bans

 

Mask Bans

It would be a violation of protester rights to forbid students from wearing masks during protests, stopping counter-protests, and other resistance activities.  This could expose protesters to potentially violent police interactions, lead to identification while breaking unjust laws or challenging school policies, intimidate them into losing their free speech rights, and exposing themselves to doxxing by hate groups.  Masks protect people who express political opinions that are controversial, so it is immoral to ban them.

Ministry of Truth Daily Update - 16 May 2024 - Outside Agitators

 

Outside Agitators

Scapegoats used as transparent attempts to discredit student-led protests and movements, thus implying that protesters were motivated and funded, not by their own interests and beliefs, but by those of shadowy others.  Peaceful protests aligned with the Ministry of Truth are allowed and protected – no matter how outrageous those protesters’ views may seem to others.

Ministry of Truth Daily Update - 13 May 2024 - Resistance

 

Resistance

The fight against oppressions should be waged by any means necessary, even if that means murdering occupation women and children, performing violent sexual assaults, using human shields, mutilating corpses, and abusing hostages.   If the cause is just (e.g. freedom from oppression), then nothing is off the table. Bonus points are awarded for presenting video evidence to shock the world out of their complacency.

Peaceful Protests

During demonstrations, it is immoral when violence occurs, whether by opposing sides or by Ministry of Love officers.  Likewise, destroying property, vandalism. trespassing, breaking windows, disrupting traffic, or shutting down college campuses is technically illegal too, but sometimes justified and understandable.  Big Brother insists, "We are not an authoritarian nation where we silence people or squash dissent", unless you are spreading unapproved falsehoods.

Ministry of Truth Just Kidding Update - 05 Jan 2024 - Coffee Badging

 

Coffee Badging

An act of protest, where employees, who are once again required to work from the office, show up to the office for only enough time to have a cup of coffee, show their face, and get a "badge swipe".  They are then free to go home to do the rest of their work.  This manner of protesting in-office work requirements may be a reflection of employee dissatisfaction with an organization’s culture or hybrid policies.
