POST 9: Themed Post

My favorite Book

My favorite book it’s the novel of George Orwell entitled “1984” and I talk to you about this book whit the less quantity of spoilers.

This book is based on a totalitarian government in which the state has achieved total control over the individuals that constitute it, which punishes the dissidents of act, but even of thought (“crimental”). The control over the individuals is such that the members of the party (citizens of this totalitarian government) lose the capacity of their own thought, for which the first manifestation of submission is the compliance of their three great slogans: "War is peace, Freedom is slavery, and ignorance is strength.” The government is constituted by ministries, which are: the Ministry of Truth (it is responsible for manipulating the information to its benefit in order to manipulate the minds of citizens); the Ministry of Abundance (manages the increasingly scarce food and raw material resources); the Ministry of Peace (is in charge of matters of war); and the Ministry of Love (he is in charge of exercising physical and mental coercion on the dissident population). If you do not worship the system, you will be tortured to worship him and then kill you. In this sense, the novel is based on a government in which its individuals lack thought, judgment and, therefore, action.
