History is a perpetual motion machine

Why open your eyes and talk nonsense, insisting that you are a xxist country?
Why is the Great Internet Wall not gradually demolished, but built up year by year?
Why is the castration knife of the General Administration of Lights sharper?
Are these the inertia of history?
Why is there no resistance to let the inertia gradually die?
I thought that the trend was to become more and more open, but the reality is that except for foreigners in 2008, after a few years of opening up, it gradually became more and more tight.
The doubts in 2015, I did not expect to figure out the taste from the old movie in 1984, and the original book is even older, published in 1949.


The ending of the male protagonist is very interesting. He was brainwashed and said affectionately to the portrait of "Big Brother": "I love you." He has become a part of the centralization, and his own people are still shot. As a fart, whether you rebel or support, can't change the outcome of the cannon fodder.

In the era of totalitarianism, the blood of excessive burning, in the post-centralization era, the ashes are cold.
After realizing that I am just a cannon fodder, I don't believe in anything, just let it be inertia, I can't bear it if I can't commit it, that's it.
Just like the heroine, unable to change everything that disgusts, just have sex, at least this is an unbrainwashed, real private feeling. The spiritual frontier has been walled, and one can only pursue carnal desires. How similar is it to the current fashion of entertaining to death.

1984 quotes

  • O'Brien: The Law of Gravity is nonsense. No such law exists. If I think I float, and you think I float, then it happens.

    Winston Smith: I love you.

  • Inner Party Speaker: They have attacked an unarmed village with rocket bombs and murdered 4,000 defenseless, innocent and peaceful citizens of Oceania. This is no longer war. This is cold-blooded murder. Until now, the war has been conducted with honor and bravery with the ideals of truth and justice in the best traditions of mankind... until this moment. Brothers and sisters, the endless catalog of beastie atrocities which will inevitably ensue from this appalling act must, can, and will be terminated. The forces of darkness and treasonable maggots who collaborate with them must, can, and will be wiped from the face of the Earth. We must crush them! We must smash them! We must stamp them out! We the people of Oceania and our traditional allies, the people of Eurasia, will not rest until a final victory has been achieved. Death of the eternal enemy of Oceania. Death! Death! DEATH! Brothers and sisters, one week from now in this very square we shall, as a demonstration of our resolve and show of strength execute publicly the same number of East Asian prisoners by hanging, drawing and quartering!
