How 1984 emulates the "Post Truth" climate in the US

  Description:       Make a case for why Orwell's 1984 does or does not mirror the current "post-truth" climate in the United States. Weave in relevant passages/themes from the novel (and play, if you saw it) that buttress your points. If you think another dystopian novel is more relevant to the 2017 political paradigm , make a case for that one instead.
