Audie Murphy, One Of The Most Decorated Combat Soldiers Of The Second World War
He received every military combat award for valor available from the Army, as well as Belgian and French awards for heroism. He also received the Medal of Honor at 19 for single-handedly holding off an entire company of German soldiers for an hour at the Colmar Pocket in January of '45, in France. A small side note is the bottom left crest, which is the insignia of the 159th French Alpine Infantry Regiment. He was awarded this device by the Mayor of Ramatuelle, France, on the 13th of July, 1948 - he was awarded this when he was in France to be decorated by Lattre de Tassigny with the French Legion of Honor (Chevalier), and the French Croix de Guerre with Palm, which took place on July 19th, 1948. Another note is the Texas National Guard's 36th Infantry Division patch he is wearing on his left arm.

Even as a child in the '50s when I first read Nineteen Eighty Four, it was apparent to me that his primary target was English Socialism. Read it again, and this time remover your Foucault Filter.
it's target was communism. There's a big difference. In many European countries exist labour parties which are exactly this: democratic socialist parties.
What do you think "Ingsoc" means? What is "Newspeak" if not "Political Correctness?" Soft totalitarianism is nonetheless totalitarianism.
A "socialist party" could never be a "democratic" party.
Well maybe should you look up the term "democratic socialism" and you will see that you are wrong. But I guess facts are not your thing.

I didn't know that "pls don't use discriminating words" equals totalitarianism. Pls tell the people in North Korea or even Russia how oppressed you are.
Political Correctness has nothing to do with "pls don't use discriminating words." Political Correctness is about forcing others to follow your rules, ergo Totalitarianism.
Simple, really. Tyranny with manners is nonetheless tyranny.
