Hmmm, very true, and the two minutes hate bears many similarities to the flame wars thread

speaking of 1984, im surprised that no one ever took up some of the other themes of the book and explored them, specifically writing some from the other two powers. Even if you didnt change much, seems like a pretty easy way to make a buck.

I'd imagine them to be very similar, although it would indeed be an easy buck

Wasn't the whole point that the other two powers didn't exist, and were merely fictitious folk-devils that allowed Oceanian leaders to manipulate their citizens with greater ease?
