    I knew somebody would point out that I said "don't have" instead of "don't have Orwellian levels of", which, for the most part, means we don't really have it. Virtually all the propaganda you would point to in the West is a Huxleyan version, not an Orwellian. Fox News, for example, is propaganda, but not state propaganda. It's not Orwell. It's all about private interests and that dollar dollar bill. The West has very little state run propaganda. Even the stuff that is state influenced isn't Orwellian in nature
