What is george orwell’s purpose in writing ?

This question is incomplete, here´s the complete question.  

Read the excerpt from "Politics and the English Language" by George Orwell.

Things like the continuance of British rule in India, the Russian purges and deportations, the dropping of the atom bombs on Japan, can indeed be defended, but only by arguments which are too brutal for most people to face, and which do not square with the professed aims of political parties. Thus political language has to consist largely of euphemism, question-begging and sheer cloudy vagueness.

C. to persuade readers that vague language is often used to soften harsh reality

D. to persuade readers that political speech should be softer and less specific

C. to persuade readers that vague language is often used to soften harsh reality

Explanation:

In his 1946 essay, Orwell criticizes the corruption of political language, which he claims was purposefully vague because it was meant to cover the ugly truth instead of revealing it.

Orwell understood that the use of vagueness and abstract ideas was a political tool to hide awful realities. That´s why he defended independent thinking and writing as required for truthful political development.
