Reaction to "Politics and the English Language" 2/5/2017

In this piece George Orwell analyzes how the English language is deteriorating. Orwell accused politicians of dodging the truth and filling the public's ears with jargon. He claimed that the incorrect language they use lead to words having abstract definitions and the collapse of the English language. Despite the fact that he blamed politics for this deterioration, the changes in culture are responsible as well. With the internet and technology, the development of slang and hashtags encourage people to use words in the wrong context creating more and more useless words. Even though, Orwell believes that English can be saved, I feel as though it won't be if the majority doesn't see a problem there will  be no way to fix it. I also believe as time passes, words and their meanings often change.
