8. Let’s say you have a friend who’s an alcoholic...
...and you’ve formulated the most convincing argument in the world for him to get off the sauce, and you begin by going out into public and calling him a “worthless fucking drunk.” How successful do you think you’re gonna be??

C’mon!! We’re all adults here, with the truth and justice on our side. We don’t need to engage in these third-grade Freep-style hate games.

And to answer your question, I wouldn't be using an "alcoholic" metaphor if I didn't think there were problems in the Party.

NGU.
