Propaganda is truly an amazing thing.  The idea that the Soviets in World War II were fighting for freedom is silly.  The Eastern front was a contest of two despotic and murderous regimes.  We called the Soviets friends — and suggested they fought for freedom — when it was convenient.  We pivoted after the war.  Quickly.

Oceania has always been at war with Eastasia.
