Talking About "1984" by George Orwell
Jaegyum: Hey Jaeyi, remember that story "1984" we read about in class? The one from that blog post, study53.tistory.com/128?
Jaeyi: Yeah, the one with Big Brother and all the telescreens. It was pretty creepy.
Jaegyum: Totally! I was thinking about how Winston, the main character, always felt like he was being watched. That's messed up.
Jaeyi: I know, right? And how they controlled what people thought and even the words they could use. Doublethink was a weird concept.
Jaegyum: It was! Believing two opposite things at the same time. Like war is peace. How can that even be possible?
Jaeyi: Exactly! And the Memory Hole, where they destroyed old records and changed history. It's like they wanted to erase the past.
Jaegyum: That part really got to me. If you don't know the truth about the past, how can you even know what's real in the present?
Jaeyi: Good point. And the Thought Police! Imagine being arrested for just thinking something bad about the government.
Jaegyum: It makes you appreciate our freedom to think and say what we want, doesn't it? Even if we disagree with things.
Jaeyi: Definitely. That story, even though it's fiction, makes you think about how important it is to have freedom and truth.
Jaegyum: It does. It's like a warning about what could happen if we're not careful.
Jaeyi: Yeah. Big Brother is always watching... even if he's not real here. It's still a scary thought.
