“If people cannot write well, they cannot think well, and if they cannot think well, others will do their thinking for them.” George Orwell. The book 1984, by George Orwell is based on a theory that “Big Brother” is the ruler or Oceania. The government has total control over their citizens by brainwashing them and pulling them into unlawful events while having no opinion or thoughts without being punished. Oceania’s crisis pertaining to “Big Brother” is relatable to today's society and how the government operates. Oceania’s citizens are always under the impression that they are being constantly watched. Winston says, “ It was terribly dangerous to let your thoughts wander when you were in any public place or within range of a telescreen.”
