1984

My god! Is this what really George Orwell believed society would regress to! He's a madman; complete lunacy on his part! But I kid, I kid. I enjoyed reading the novel, it was would I thought small social groups in closed environments could possibly be like. For example, a factory setting; you have your supervisor who is below a head supervisor who is below a manager who is also below the head manager who oversees all withthin his confines. You the worker, must listen and accept all commands given to you whether you agree with them or not. There is conscious will in your decision dont get me wrong, but to act upon your first conscious decision is a refute to the system of authority over you. My fellow men and women I implore you to stand up for what you believe in no matter how outnumbered you are. One can mean many in a demonstration, and many can mean more than one! Great Gatsby! We can't let such a social norm BE a norm. To be normal is to be, them. And being them is to be, not you. Liking what they like, hating what they hate. Sounds exhausting! It should, and you shouldn't be. You should be happy to put it simply. And when your happy you're never tired!
