Orwellian Holy Wood 1

 The Orwellian Theme in Holy Wood and other references on the album. 


Disposable Teens: The Beatles, sex.


In this track, Manson refers to the song Revolution 1
You say you want a revolution.../ You say you want an evolution...                                                                                -The Beatles

Then Manson: 

You said you wanted evolution
The ape was a great, big hit

You say you want a revolution, man
And I say that you're full of shit

 

Now, the Orwell quote: "You're only a rebel from the waist downwards," he told her
And in the song: A rebel from the waist down

President Dead

In the world of 1984, everyone is under constant surveillance from the government, and each other without end; through visual means via the telescreen or auditory from hidden microphones.

Gettin high on violence, baby
During seminars and the rally's of Hate Week the people of Oceania are expected- programmed- to become enraged and go into a wreck-less frenzy upon the sight on the screen of Goldstein, the black sheep of the Party. This implication of necessary destruction has a seeming effect on the populus, especially the children... think of Winston's neighbors, the Parsons, whose children happily attacked W. Smith for the thrill of attacking what they (correctly in-fact) saw as an alleged thought criminal.
