“All persons whom we bring to this place are washed clean, Winston. The execution of their sentences is relatively unimportant. By the time we have finished with them, there is nothing left of them but sorrow, for what they have done, and their love for Big Brother. It is touching to see how they love Big Brother.” - 1984 (George Orwell)
There's a red cloud hanging over us And it's so big and it's gonna bust All you people with your heads in the ground Hey, brother, where you bound?
And they're no good, and they're everywhere Try to tell you, but you just don't care Yes, I hear you, but you don't make a sound Hey, brother, where you bound?
And you don't know what they're gonna do And you don't know how they feel And you don't know what they're tellin' you, is it a lie or is it real? And the next thing that you know is that they walk out on the deal
And the message that they're giving you is the same old alibi If you don't quite see their point of view, then they treat you like a spy And the phone rings And you disappear In the middle of the night
Can't you see they're on the move? Don't know what you're trying to prove! But you sit there, oh, so cool Like they never broke no rules!
And the cat flies and the crow walks and the ghost dies and the sow talks And they tell us they'll be good as gold Hey, brother, where's your soul? Believe nothing that you're told
Make a move in one direction Try to make some compromise But they greet you with rejection, makin' out you're tellin' lies Then they turn around and tell you better get down from the sky
For the sake of all that's holy, listen good to what I say I can feel them all around me, they could be here any day But you act like you don't know me Why'd you look at me that way??
If there's one thing that is clear, we gotta get away from here We've gotta leave this place It's just a hopeless case! Ain't no one else to blame, we're gonna lose this game
Hey, brother, get off my back I gotta tell you, you're way off the track They got a hatred deep down inside Ain't gonna let them take me alive
I'm gonna burn them down, just wait and see Ain't gonna let them walk over me Boy, you ain't got no heart and soul! And your mind is weak, and your blood's runnin' cold
You better move, you better hide They're gettin' in, they're gettin' inside If you get caught you better know They're gonna reap, you're gonna sow
Don't be a fool, we gotta go Ain't no place safe for us to stay We better move on We better move on

…it could also be a cousin and nephew as well….
So if you and your mother have a child, and it's a female, your little sister, and you then impregnate her, what relationship would you then have with her? Grandfather uncle??
