“It's intellectual freedom when a journalist can understand that 2 + 2 = 4; that's what Orwell was writing about in 1984.

What Winston Smith [the main character] was saying is, if we can still understand that 2 + 2 = 4, they haven't taken everything away. Okay? Well, in the United States, people can't even understand that 2 + 2 = 4.”
