But for me, it's no Utopia, it's history, and it's 1984 impression on Wang Xiaobao. For an experienced the cultural revolution, in every article, every sentence has a desire for freedom of thinking and happy people, this book in 1980 to give his feelings must have been shocked and hesitate again with a sob.
A person to see Orwell, the more a guarantee of freedom, this is the evaluation of the 1984 animal farm and Time in the United States, pay attention to a word, the freedom, what is freedom, its significance to the whole human society is where. At least I think, in 1984, the freedom of thought and speech is in direct violation of the interests of others under the premise of different from the permission and the freedom of thought, the pursuit of truth right and freedom, whether it objectively is correct, but you must not oppose the people to think, to. And as they say, freedom is the freedom of two plus two equals four. There is no doubt that 1984 in the world is to obliterate the extreme opposite this freedom, government use of various methods, almost cruel to people's way of thinking is completely reversed, will only accept and complete identity, individual thinking does not exist, the real idea exists only in the mind of the ruling class.
The protagonist Winston is a "doublethink", perhaps a little light in the dark world, he realized that their environment is terrible, totalitarian control everything, people have no freedom, but also be monitored every day. Winston wanted to rebel, and found the organization, but the ruling was too strong, and the people have not awakened, which led to Winston finally abandoned the resistance thought and converted to "orthodox thinking"". Person in front of a powerful system is so small, like the self Immolation in the crowd before the cadre is how small, like small peddlers being chased around the beaten, how they are no resistance and despair
In addition, some of Orwell's ideas in the book are also profound and visionary. He summed up the reasons for the failure of rulers in history, for example, they did not control the people ideologically, just killed dissidents, but failed to change their point of view. While the new totalitarian society does not have this problem, for those who thought of "crime", they will be tortured with harsh logic education of overwhelmed with unreasonable demands, finally accepted the party's ideological indoctrination. The vested interests at the top of Pyramid are smart enough to consume excess capacity through endless wars. Perhaps the social development has been stagnant, the essence of life may be at the top of the vested interest has not so much better, but compared with the power of their assets and the outer party members are poor and. It is in order to maintain the gap, is located on the border of the war does not necessarily exist even neither painful nor itching but never stop; also only in this war environment, people's emotions have a vent, fanatical war and hatred inhibited the generation of other ideas. The vast majority of the people's lives are not affected by war, but they are still imbued with the fact that the country is at war, and they have a fanatical trust in the leaders and the party. This is the profound meaning of the slogan "war is peace" put forward by Orwell.
