RE: ADSactly Culture - 1984 Orwell and the Reality of Venezuela (Part I)

in #adsactly6 years ago

George Orwell portrayed the senseless and merciless duel of the individual and the system, where the first is doomed to ruin. The authoritarian state denies the human right to individuality, and this means that everything that is dear to us will be violated if the power of the state over society is absolute. The writer warned us against the collectivism of thought and against the permissiveness of the dictatorship under any slogans that we most certainly cannot believe. For me, the meaning of the work “1984” is to present the world, which has dialectically evolved according to the laws of today to the state of tyranny, and to show its poverty, its total discrepancy to our values ​​and ideas. The author has taken the radical ideas of contemporary politicians to him to the extreme and got no fiction, no, but a real forecast for the future, to which we, unwittingly, are approaching the present. Any dystopia exaggerates to make humanity think about what will happen next, if you allow the arbitrariness of today.

Very well said, @aydogdy. !984 is a clear and evident anticipation of the whole society we were going to have. This reality could be aggravated if we do not assume that there are egomaniacal governments (presidents) seeking to control the world. Right now there are many examples to fear. Greetings!
