The year 1984 has now passed, but George Orwell's almost apocalyptic vision of the future may still occur in the near future. 1984 presents a society that has obscured all signs of individuality, love, opportunity and critical thinking. George Orwell described the atmosphere in a "Negative Utopia" which illustrates the hopelessness of society's future. He contrasts this state of mind with the popular philosophy of the Buddhist religion that humanity has the ability to create peace and love. These contrasting points of view form the basis for the life of Winston, who is the protagonist character caught in a society devoted to conformity. Winston Smith is a thin, frail, thoughtful, and intellectual middle-aged man who hates the totalitarian control and power imposed by his government. Orwell's warning message in his book is to show that if people fail to change the way things are, our society will lose all human qualities. They will become soulless machines and will have no idea of ​​the new world they have created for themselves. Winston is different from the rest of his society, a civilization that does not approve of the individuality of your true self. Being different in this world only means rebellion and that's exactly what Winston sets out to do. He believes that although he must conform to the outside, no one can take away his individual thinking. Winston's individuality is the only hope for human nature as it challenges the most basic tenets of the regime, a thought crime. One idea that Winston questions about his society is the concept of freedom and why it doesn't match its actual definition. “How can you have a slogan like 'freedom is slavery' when the concept of freedom has been abolished?” Winston goes on to talk about... middle of paper... self-suffering just to show that he is not under the rule of the World Controllers. John becomes the main character of the novel because after being rejected by both the “savage” Indian culture and the “civilized” culture of the World State, he is the quintessential outsider, outside of any society. Disconnected, rejected, John is not truly part of Malpais or London. His only society is the imaginative world of Shakespeare and the religious philosophy of the Bible, a field in which he lives with energy and misguided idealism. John is the true loner and his life, as a result, is full of confusion and pain. John refuses to ingest SOMA because he is the devil. He hates SOMA and comes to the conclusion that it is the reason for the corruption of the world's state society. The moral of both stories is that technology/drugs/chemicals do not rule society as they would take humanity and devastate its purity..
