1984 #1

1984's society has created conformity and equality in many ways. Everyone is forced to wear the same clothing and has the same rations of food. Their living conditions are equal. They have created conformity through thoughts due to the thought police and everything of the like, because of the BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING YOU signs. In a nutshell, Big Brother is trying to create a society full of close-minded people who do not think for themselves and don't question a minute of it. To reduce conflict, the government has eradicated almost all traces of religion and has put an end to relationships being a natural part of life. Thus, they have ended conflict. This society is a dystopia. The Party had every intent to create a utopia, but utopias have no capability to exist in human nature, therefore The Party's intended utopia would not have happened.
