“Being in a minority, even in a minority of one, did not make you mad. There was truth and there was untruth, and if you clung to the truth even against the whole world, you were not mad.”

― George Orwell, 1984

The curse of having read 1984 is that you will see some sort of very common internet/gen z language and you’re just like “oh that’s newspeak” and then you dissociate for several minutes thinking about how the meanings of words are changed in order to perpetuate the class system

When my class was going over questions we had about part one of 1984, someone asked why there was a shortage of razor blades; my teacher mentioned that shortages of essential items such as razor blades are probably orchestrated by The Party in order to keep its members in poverty. At first one might wonder why the heck they would want their members to have such poor living conditions, but then it occurred to me: it has to do with Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs. According to Maslow, a person’s basic needs for survival (such as food, water, shelter, and, by extension, a feeling of safety) must be met before they can worry about higher needs such as love, self-esteem, and self-actualization (including creative and intellectual pursuits). Obviously Party members wouldn’t feel safe knowing that Big Brother is constantly watching them through the telescreens and a network of spies, and if they are also kept in a state of fluctuating half-poverty due to the occasional scarcity of a basic need such as food or, in this instance, razor blades, they will be more likely to worry about if they’re going to have enough food or how long their clothes will last and less likely to start committing thoughtcrimes. From Big Brother’s standpoint, it’s genius: keeping your citizens preoccupied with the physical conditions in which they live ensures that they will not have the time or energy to conspire or rise up against you.
