" I ask because if there is a rationale I want to know it with AMSOC on the way..." Hmmm...We rather just (hopefully)
escaped from a totalitarian cult of personality. Notice the new guy isn't openly threatening Public Officials via Twitter. Barring Civil War II, the Dear Leader will fade into the dust. Not barring it, China annexes Australia, Borneo & New Zealand and Russia reacquires old buffer countries whilst we engage in some real internecine bullshit. Won't be a real fun time for Los Estados Unidos and most of the rest of the world. Japan tried to establish the "Southeast Asia co-prosperity sphere" in the late 30's. China has hypersonic carrier killer missiles, real air defences, artificial islands full of hardware, lots of shore to ship missiles and ultra-quiet benthic submarines, we would have a 10,000 mile stretch of open water to negotiate; they are way ahead of the Japanese effort. The Russians have the Nordics rattled to the point they are drafting soldiers as they are only about 3 minutes missile flight from the Rodina. The Germans & French are uncomfortably close to the buffer countries Putin has been eyeing for 10 years. All that's needed here is a major disruption; Civil War II would provide that. The Dear Leaders QAnon brigades keep saying they are ready to go. Even 5% of those folks going off script would create a lot of disruption, maybe enough.
Here is an answer to the ING vs. ENG:
"Why is it spelled INGSOC? Orwell modelled Newspeak on Esperanto, which he hated for some reason. Esperanto uses phonetic spelling."https://moviechat.org/tt0087803/1984/58c7421a6b51e905f66f0a53/Why-INGSOC-and-not-ENGSOCSynopsis:
Ingsoc (short for English Socialism) is the political ideology of the Party’s totalitarian government of Oceania, in the novel Nineteen Eighty-Four (1949), by George Orwell.
Slogans: "Big Brother is Watching You" ; "Proles and Animals are free" ; "War is Peace" ; "Freedom is Slavery" ; "Ignorance is Strength" ; "Who controls the past controls the future; who controls the present controls the past" ; "What is truth? Sixty-two thousand four hundred repetitions make one truth.” (the last 4 years rather validated that, eh?)

Nineteen Eighty-Four: A Novel, often published as 1984, is a dystopian social science fiction novel by English novelist George Orwell. It was published on 8 June 1949 by Secker & Warburg as Orwell's ninth and final book completed in his lifetime. Thematically, Nineteen Eighty-Four centres on the consequences of totalitarianism, mass surveillance, and repressive regimentation of persons and behaviours within society.[2][3] Orwell, himself a democratic socialist, modelled the authoritarian government in the novel after Stalinist Russia.[2][3][4] More broadly,
the novel examines the role of truth and facts within politics and the ways in which they are manipulated.
The story takes place in an imagined future, the year 1984, when much of the world has fallen victim to perpetual war, omnipresent government surveillance, historical negationism, and propaganda. Great Britain, known as Airstrip One, has become a province of a totalitarian superstate named Oceania that is ruled by the Party who employ the Thought Police to persecute individuality and independent thinking.[5]
Big Brother, the leader of the Party, enjoys an intense cult of personality despite the fact that he may not even exist. The protagonist, Winston Smith, is a diligent and skillful rank-and-file worker and Party member who secretly hates the Party and dreams of rebellion. He enters into a forbidden relationship with a colleague, Julia, and starts to remember what life was like before the Party came to power.
Nineteen Eighty-Four has become a classic literary example of political and dystopian fiction. It also popularised the term "Orwellian" as an adjective, with many terms used in the novel entering common usage, including "Big Brother", "doublethink", "thoughtcrime", "Newspeak", "memory hole", "2 + 2 = 5", "proles", "Two Minutes Hate", "telescreen", and "Room 101". Time included it on its 100 best English-language novels from 1923 to 2005.[6] It was placed on the Modern Library's 100 Best Novels, reaching No. 13 on the editors' list and No. 6 on the readers' list.[7] In 2003, the novel was listed at No. 8 on The Big Read survey by the BBC.[8] Parallels have been drawn between the novel's subject matter and real life instances of totalitarianism, mass surveillance, and violations of freedom of expression among other themes.[9][10][11]

And now for something completely different...
The illusory truth effect (also known as the illusion of truth effect, validity effect, truth effect, or the reiteration effect) is
the tendency to believe false information to be correct after repeated exposure.[1] This phenomenon was first identified in a 1977 study at Villanova University and Temple University.[2][3] When truth is assessed, people rely on whether the information is in line with their understanding or if it feels familiar. The first condition is logical, as people compare new information with what they already know to be true. Repetition makes statements easier to process relative to new, unrepeated statements, leading people to believe that the repeated conclusion is more truthful. The illusory truth effect has also been linked to hindsight bias, in which the recollection of confidence is skewed after the truth has been received.
