They can make you say anything - anything – but they can’t make you believe it.
There is a saying old says that hope is the last thing we loose, but what happens when we don’t have anything? What happens when there is nothing to live for? To fight? To wake up every morning? To be happy?
In that moment nothing Is important and everything is irrelevant, you’re empty. Thereso, which es the reason for the people who lives in Oceania (London) to be? They live exclusively for the Party; they just love THE BIG BROTHER. They are nobody.
Apparently this can seem just an unnatractive fiction system, but in fact it is as real as you and me. Among the humanity history there have been many Big Brothers rolling all over a country with goodthinkful population. For example in China, Cuba, Russia, South Chorea, … What do these countries have in common? They are/were communist, a similar system as the one used in George Orwell’s book. The main points of this system are:
- No social classes or State
- Same rights and obligations, as well as economic status
- No private possessions
- The Government has all the control over the economy
By the way, it may be a good system if the leaders were not corrupted, if everyone agreed their decisions and justice was not hidden in some forgotten place.
On the other hand, the quotation I chose is not true, as many of the story details, “they” can get inside you, they mostly do, with pain, fear, incomprehension, … in the end, people falls, their ideas are not there any more, just as in Winston’s case, who ends crying of joy because his private fight has ended, because he finally loves BIG BROTHER.
