1984 George Orwell Book Report

You are a parrot. I am a parrot. Everyone is a parrot until one thinks, starts being selfish, self-preocupied and cares for himself; not for a bureaucrat. A bureaucrat can be the boss, not a leader, which means he orders and we execute. We are the ones that damage society by being, parrots and believe everything the bureaucrats tell us. That system can be easily identified in George Orwell’s astonishing book, 1984. Orwell speaks out his mind about the future. He believed that in 1984 would be like that. Who would have imagined that his book is not just a prediction of the year 1984 but in fact, his book reflects the society in which we live nowadays? Many of his predictions in 1984 don’t just appear in that year, but also in 2016. Since 1984

George Orwell was right to predict a future as he does in 1984. It’s a future full of terror, hate, lies that hunts not those who are in power, but to the hardworking people in the country. Adult’s perspective changes, kid’s perspective changes. It is not only the adults who are suffering but the kids are changing and that is something important to remember because after all, the kids are the future of this word. The kids are an important part of the world. They are supposed to always be faithful to their parents, and a father should always have the loyalty of a son. In 1984, George Orwell describes a society in which the kids go against their parents. In 1984, George Orwell describes the children as “systematically turned against their parents and taught to spy on them and report their deviations. The family had become in effect an extension of the Thought Police”. (Orwell, 9) You see, this happens in 1984 but it also happens in 2016. In Orwell’s book, if you are a parent, you have to cover your stuff even from your own children. The minute the children see something wrong with you, they will go against you. Nowadays, we see similar cases as it

It is more than that. The idea of Big Brother is watching you is not someone watching or some system. People of the town are the ones helping the figure of Big Brother. In 1984 people’s fear of Big Brother was so big that either you do whatever they say, or you die. Big Brother built a fear in every person through his advertisements and his controlI. It was a feeling that couldn’t be replaced nor changed. But the question is how is it that Big Brother was able to create a feeling of fear? How was he able to change people’s mind? How was he able to control kids and receive love? The answer is, according to George Orwell’s book 1984, that “Power is in tearing human minds to pieces and putting them together again in new shapes of your own choosing.” This quote reflects the way in which Big Brother controls you by building new people, making them believe all of what you say. How does this compare to the actual year? There are no dairies anymore, know we tweet, blog, post something on Facebook, share something on Instagram. Now we use all of these open social medias to show what happens in our lives instead of maintining it privetely. The social media today is almost the same as Big Brother’s surveilance. The social media is controlling the world. It can help you or destroy you. For example, as a journalist, Aulia Karli, wanted to explain how social media affects one. She says: “I am just trying to make you believe that
