TWO AND TWO MAKE FIVE


I't's well known that mathematics are universal and thereso its are the same in the earth planet, in the moon or in the most isolated planet of the Universe. For example, 2+2=4, it's always four and not any other number. Then, why says the tittle that the result is five?

First of all we have to take in account were is it written, in the book “1984” by George Orwell. Once we know that, this sentence starts having a little bit of sense. The story's book takes place in London, Oceania, and the power that raises is a totalitarism. Do you know which are the main characteristics of a totalitarian system?

- The state recognizes no limits to its authority.

- Regulate every aspect of public and private life.

- A lot of propaganda campaign

By the way, on the story Big Brother is always telling everybody how to behave, what to say even what to dream and the Though Police applies the laws and punishments to the dissidents, that may be or not. Furthermore, Big Brother is always truth and as consequence if he says rabbit fly you will do belief those animals can really fly, or if he says you're name is Charlie and you are called Jack, your name from that moment has always been the same, Charlie. If we follow this reasoning method, is there any real memory? Any true fact? No, there is not, so if the lider says that two and two make five, you agree.
