Part 6/8:
The potential for a serious revolt seems plausible when one considers the various factions within Oceania's social hierarchy. The Outer Party members—while mostly loyal—are not without their detractors. Characters such as Parsons and Julia exemplify individuals capable of subversion, indicating that discontent is not confined to the Proles.
Moreover, the possibility of discontent even among Inner Party members adds another layer of complexity. The narrative documents the purging of prominent characters, such as Jones and Aaronson, who secretly opposed the regime. Such instances suggest that the ruling elite can harbor dissenters who could align with underground resistance movements when the moment calls for it.
