This is an excerpt of an essay by William Lutz which has connections to Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four
Reality is not external. Reality exists in the human mind, and nowhere else. Not in the individual mind which can make mistakes, and in any case soon perishes; only in the mind of the Party, which is collective and immortal. Whatever the Party holds to be the truth is the truth. It is impossible to see reality except through the eyes of the Party.
--George Orwell, Nineteen Eighty-Four

To guide you in your correct thinking and to ensure that you truly understand what really happened, the party provides the necessary guidance: “Without the Communist Party, there would be no China.” “Love the Party, love the socialist motherland.” As the loyal party member said, “What they really want is for you to say, ‘We love Deng, we love the party and we love socialism.’ And we all say it of course.” No one died in Tiananmen Square.
Almost unconsciously he traced with his finger in the dust on the table: 2 + 2 = 5….it was all right, everything was all right, the struggle was finished. He had won the victory over himself. He loved Big Brother.
