Q. Do any of you think the things thatwere going on in 1984 by George Orwell, are going on today. Im not just talking about the little things like being watched constantly. Im talking about the Government full on lying to us and changing our minds about everything. If you think about it, We are making the "terrorist" like like pure evil the same way they are making us look like the bad guy. Do you think they are changing things for us, like history. Do you think we are being introduced to these huge problems in the country like obesity, economic crisis, new diseases by the government all to fit some master plan?
I could just be paranoid though.

Answer
1984 almost sounds like a handbook for what our society is developing into.
Concrete examples of what has already been done. One of the largest cable providers put cameras in their cable boxes, supposedly in case there was a hostage crisis in the home. Once discovered they were supposedly removed. Bill Gates the long time head of Microsoft actually said he thought people should be monitored on camara 24/7 in case they are accused of a crime so they can prove their innocence.
We have red light cameras, we have speeding cameras, cameras on the highways, cameras on city streets, parking lots, stores, in our work place. Even some homes are voluntarily running full time cams on their computers outputing selected views to the world 24/7.
In terms of the social control Universal health care if put into effect will be used to create almost exactly the society described in "1984". Once in place it will soon become evident to save money that certain "activities" must be prohibited and that manditory exercise programs are necessary of course to reduce costs. On top of that psychological health is far more decisive on physical health than anything you can do or not do. This again opens the door to requiring close scrutiny in order to assure "happy" people which means prohibiting activities which are considered "unhealthy". You already see it with stupidities like giving trophey's all kids just for participating because they fear some kid might be "harmed" but not winning.
In terms of "right speak" can you not see PC speach as direct analogy of "right speak".
The revisionist history is already taking place. Every group and their brother are trying to rewrite history right now to the point that people are honestly confused about what really is or isn't what happened. There are actually many people who believe Cleopatra was Black for example. She was Greek, no she probably didn't have Blonde hair, though that was possible, but Elizabeth Taylor was actually pretty historicallly close, Angilna Jole would be another who probably would be very Cleopatra like.
There is an old saying absolute powere corrupts absolutely. Socialism places absolute power in the hands of the government, this power would inevitably be abused.

Answer
No, not unless you jump on a bike or on a bus or car, something along those lines.
