Answer:

Other doublespeak slogans are:

1. Freedom Is Slavery

2. Ignorance Is Strength

Explanation:

George Orwell, in his book, 1984 portrayed the use of doublespeak (doublethink). Doublespeak is a form of language which seeks to deliberately distort and reverse the meaning of words.

In his book, 1984, the Party used doublespeak (doublethink) as part of their campaigning which spreads propaganda and goes further to manipulate the public and even leadership. It is the ability of holding two beliefs that are contradictory and believed to be true.

So, in his book, the doublespeak examples that are seen are: War Is Peace, Freedom Is Slavery and Ignorance Is Strength.
