1984

A book written by George Orwell in 1948, the title is simply derived from flipping the last 2 digits of the year it was written (1948/1984) and has nothing to do with when it is all supposed to take place. The book is mostly used to show the governments ability to control what you think simply by simplifying language. For example instead of bad there is only ungood. This stops society from thinking and only obeys what the government wants it to. And if you pay attention to the evening news you may notice this slowly happening when they talk about things and you have no idea what they mean.

daily dude

you're the only one who doesnt understand the news. you also missed a major portion of 1984. the party in 1984 controlled the future by controlling the past. we currently live in a society where the people choose to forget that past rather than the government erasing. very much like 1984's proles, they would rather accept life on its face than dream of a better life.
