Where Orwell got it wrong
War is Peace. Freedom is Slavery. Ignorance is Strength.
War is Peace. Freedom is Slavery. Ignorance is Strength. In his novel 1984, George Orwell forecasted a dystopian society 36 years in the future, in which an all-powerful state uses advanced technology to exert totalitarian control over the thoughts, words and actions of its citizens. Ubiquitous two-way “telescreens” watch the individual’s every move and emit an endless stream of sinister propaganda.
