Why Did Winston Reject his Own Ideas for Escape? 👁️ 1984 Lore
In Part Two, Chapter Five of Nineteen Eighty-Four Winston and Julia consider various means of escape and carrying on their illicit affair before rejecting them.
In this video, we consider why Winston rejected each of these possibilities, including that he and Julia escape by living as proles away from the Party.

Furthermore, we ponder how the T...
Does Winston's Confession in the Movie Contradict the Novel? 👁️ 1984 Lore
Просмотров 2,5 тыс.21 день назад
In Radford's 1984 movie adaptation of Nineteen Eighty-Four we see Winston Smith publicly confess to his 'crimes', however, given the concept of vaporisation, which is supposedly his ultimate fate, does this make sense? Radford's film would seem to contradict the cannon novel that has Winston already an 'unperson' before his release. Is this necessarily an outright contradiction? This is 1984 Lo...

The strict control and reduction of language is a key feature of Orwell's dystopian world, with Newspeak being the official language of Oceania, however, since Goldstein's Book informs us in-universe that the superstates are almost idenitical in ideology and structure, this begs the question: what are Eurasia and Eastasia's versions of Newspeak?

1984 Lore 👁️ O'Brien's Servant: Martin
I believe I have cracked theymystery, though not having read the book, and various claims on here that they are Emanual Goldstein. The conversation is overshadowed by talk of the name Goldstein, and neglects the name Emanual, Latin for Jesus. He was someone around under an old malfunctional system, there for a new one, but it is worse than the previous, no mercy, no redemption - he may have been created as an indictment against religion.
I don’t think we ever will know with any certainty. As I think Orwell said himself about the book, “Don’t let it happen.” I do think the party’s lust for power for power’s sake is truly evil.
1984 is a book about the modern world. It's not telling of some dystopian future, but rather our own. With the globalist elite controlling the world, democracy is just a reality TV show. Obama, Biden, Trump; all working together.
If I do remember correctly, I believe one of the factors was that the war was never meant to be won. The army IS the police, POWs are dissidents of the system, and Veterans are either state actors or police that were putting down rebel cells. For better context Orwell was also very disillusioned by Stalin and the UK, it's not far fetched that in this universe airstrip 1 (UK) still has their imperial holdings of India and Hong Kong they take people from there as pows and support their claims of a war. Orwell during ww2 was a propagandist in the UK tasked to gain support from India. He saw the UK and Stalin as fascist racist hypocrites that claimed to be diverse only because they colonized so alot of world.

I don't think a state like Oceania could work for very long in practice because the Party systematically chases down and "cures" (or just outright kills) more or less all intelligent individuals since it perceives them as the biggest threats to its power. But how can you have a big and complex economy if you only have an unintelligent and uneducated workforce? And without a sophisticated economy you cannot produce telescreens, helicopters and other means which keep the population under control.
Much like all totalitarian governments, Oceania would eventually fall. They couldn't keep up the facade forever. The movie shows that Winston writes down his memories in a notebook, which he keeps hidden. I'm sure many more subjects do this as well and the lies just fall apart.
I have a theory that V for vendetta is a prequel to 1984 as Winston is The son of Adam sutler as there both played by John hurt
I think there is only one way, and that's: think orthodox 😂 in the book it says that there is no difference between a thoughtcrime (thinking "Down with the Big Brother" and writing it down on a diary). What you say in your sleep is something else entirely..
Not necessarily Eastasian. Some of the Eurasian prisoners are also described as having “Mongolian” faces.
I always that the amount of cooperation required to maintain ingsoc was antithetical to the paranoia of the party. If people are just trying to survive, they're not going to be creative and adapt to the changes and challenges that come with an organization that large. I also thought that change would come from the top, not the bottom. It would be impossible for the three nation states to be completely in cahoots, and you also have the navigating of people within the party to assume control over it, which creates political conflict and even violent conflict internal to the party. It would require a lot of work to keep the charade going, and I don't see why anyone would be invested in maintaining it.
Double Plus Good this.
F**k Big Brother
I have no idea y people dont worry about the cult of personality Trump has built currently. When has a large portion of the population having unwavering loyalty to a leader they wont even entertain the idea he could possibly be wrong or untruthful ever worked out well? I even think Trump is gonna do a better job then kamala but the amount of people who do and believe anything he says without question is what makes me worry. If he wanted a 3rd term and sent out a message telling his supporters to arm themselves and take control of government buildings a scary amount of people would 100% do it and that should be a concern to everyone.
Stop treating Orwell as a hero. Isn’t it wonderful how the great patriotic lover of liberty Orwell wrote satires of socialism and the Soviet Union … an ally of his own flippin country during WWII and could never seem to be bothered once to satirize fascism and the Nazis or show how his own country’ two centuries of crazed capitalist imperialism caused the world wars and the rise of fascism, and how his own nation’s business leaders really had no problem with Hitler and the Nazis and half of its bloody aristocracy had been ready to jump in bed with fascists and Hitler since the early 1930s; in fact pretty much right up until he invaded France. Orwell is no great hero of anything. He’s just a typical liberal apologist for fascism and hysterical fear monger about communism and class traitor promoting hatred of his own British working class. Stop venerating the man like some kind of saint for sanity. He even sexually assaulted a young woman perhaps a minor in his young manhood and served as a colonial police officer dispensing imperialist “justice” on the colonized. NOT A HERO.
I've been rereading the book and this was one of the things I wanted to reevaluate. I really want to believe that their love story was true, but I can't shake the feeling that she was a honeypot put into place by O'Brian.
This is a terrible book and should be ignored by any good thinking free spirited human
The programming and control that I'm talking about are present in this very movie that is shown here, showing you who to hate and who and what to praise. But I'll leave that for you to discern. If I can get there, so can you.
You should read more books and less movies and you'll see that you've only pointed out the most surface level and obvious ideas of the novel .
@rippedtorn2310 not really. What is presented as a cautionary tale is, in fact, just another propaganda piece because by trying to criticize government formats so you stay away from them, it ends up pushing you even more towards the people who wanted to screw you in the first place.
Funny how it is supposed to be a tale of warning but you already are in such a world. The world has already been delivered into the hands of those who made it this way some time before most of us were even born. And all this while you think you're venerating heroes, saints and the just cause of "saving the world" but you've just helped the world get handed to the most psychotic group of people who ever walked this earth. Sure, the control might not be as ham-fisted as in the book but the control is there, albeit more subtle. And ofc, with the constant imprint of your supposed enemies in your brain thru the repetition of color schemes and patterns. Delivered to you thru the television, movies and books. Every day that passes this is evermore a world of fantasy. Specially in what we call "the West".
How profound 🧐
@@GaryWilson-s4t Right? Lol like thats the whole premise .
INGSOC = English socialism. In my mind I like to think that Equilibrium would seen as a sequel of sorts to 1984,Winstons revenge.....
Down with Big Brother
I think 1984 was probably ran by an AI.
In fact where’s there any military in this state? Wars can’t be fought and strategized on misinformation.
The whole book is a fallacy, there is no Winston, no war, no big brother, it's meant as mere entertainment and the works of a delusional mad man like Goldstein. Now go about your life as a hard working citizen, take your daily orders and never forget that your vote matters.
'Will they stand by and watch their loved ones starve' Yes they will. There is absolutely nothing they can do about it. They can't organize and have no weapons while the party has a large military and absolute control over all communication, logistics and every aspect of the economy and every item produced in it. If the proles were capable of rebelling they would have already done so. Just ask anyone who lived through all those engineered soviet famines what the people did about it - not a single thing, and that was in a dictatorship with far less power than the party
I think escaping Airstrip One to “Eurasia” might be possible like how some people have escaped North Korea.
How are you going to cross the english canel
Even if you figure a way across the channel, Eurasia is at best just a totalitarian state with an uneasy truce with Oceania or at worst at war with Oceania. It is more than likely upon landing on the Eurasian shores that you are captured and sent to a labor camp or interrogated and shot as a potential spy. South Korea welcome North Korean because they are aren't a threat to the regime and aren't putting ideas in South Korean's heads to defect. Eurasia would likely not want Oceanians around giving Eurasians the idea they could cross the channel and defect to Oceania.
Freedom is Slavery
This is 1984
Unless conditioning and mind control were very, very thorough, one would have to believe that 'self-deletion' would be more common than supposed. But in Oceania, there would be no public notification that so-and-so did this. They would just disappear and be forgotten.
Yes, as far as any of their peers would know they would have been effectively vaporised. Winston does say he believes a lot of disappearances are self-deletions.
Learned helplessness. It's been studied extensively...
How did you learn the difference?
It's the system. If people ever thought there was any escape they would have to be unpersoned for the good of big brother.
There is no feasible way for an outer party member to escape the BB and live.
Another to think of is they have been indoctrinated that escape of any kind is impossible. If you don't believe something can happen, you will not try it. The opposite of the scene where Winston is told something along the lines of 'Belief is all. If you believe I float and I believe I float, then I float'.
LOL - that scene was crackers. Obviously I'd be petrified just like anybody else, but half the time I think I'd also have to fight the urge of just bursting into a fit of laughter. I think I may have more in common with the character of Julia in that regard.
I think I have found the meaning of the phrase "freedom is slavery". Those who were free from the telescreen and the thought police were the proles, who however were slaves, treated like production animals. At the same time, party members were free from slavery (they held regularly paid work and probably with some kind of welfare) but were slaves in matters of personal, social and political relationships.
Genious.
I thought you said "Julian" at first and for a second had a horrible feeling I was committing Wrongthink about that character being called Julia all along.
"Julian" - an apostate Outer Party member like the Emperor. LOL
Imagine Winston and Julia having their own spinoff sitcom series called The Proles. That's the only way escape would have been possible
I think it's most likely but given that the thought police have agents around like Charrington I doubt they would last long.
You're missing the laugh track part. On your own, brother?
There's something ironic about you having to say "self-deletion" given the subject matter.
I think it’s more like “Fahrenheit 451” books weren’t banned for political reasons, it was so people wouldn’t have to worry about being offended.
Report all thought crime !!!
Man, living in a dark dystopian society like that would be scary/horrific.
Depending on your age, you may get your chance in this one.
Winston and Julia knew escape was futile and impossible.
I’ve never read the book but I love the Michael Radford film. It’s a masterpiece.
You really should read the book! It's not that long and it's a breezy read. A lot of the ideas come across a lot more clearly in the actual text. I think you'd enjoy it. And hey, you can always get an audio book, probably for free.
The movie captures the essence of the book, although the book goes into more depth exploring its themes (as one might expect from a book).
Interesting.
The Blackstone audio version is my favourite. I've read the novel many times in hard copy, especially in the time before YT, but nothing beats listening. It was how stories used to be told by our distant ancestors and this version has a great narrator. :D
@@nineteen-eighty-four-lore Awesome
Why did george orwell name the book 1984
Winstons summary made perfect sense to me. Symes was able to work out and understand the parties reasons for creating Newspeak and having the articulation to be able to explain this in simple terms could be dangerous if he did ever turn against BB. Better to be an unseen wolf among sheep in 1984
I think Eurasia should take back vladivostok and the Sakhalin Island that would make the border easier on the eyes
been away from here awhile and I come back to find some nice long cuts to get me through some shifts cheers comrade
Yes, just knitting a few together going into the new year. Just for those who want them all in a single video. :D

Liking the long format compilations
Just adding a few compilations going into the new year. New stuff will still come out every friday.
Most authoritarian states (and even some democratic states) have multiple state security agencies who spend much of their time watching over one another. It's possible that the Thought Police aren't even a single agency but are in fact multiple ones with slightly different but often overlapping missions and functions.

What holidays are celebrated in Oceania?
Probably just hate week. But religious holidays like Christmas may be celebrated in private in prole communities, since the party doesn’t care about religion if the proles want to.
