Crimestop is when people get rid of unwanted thoughts as defined by the Party. You can also see it as someone stopping themselves from taking their mind to “dangerous path”. By this I mean a thought that that is against the Party’s teachings. (pg 212)

Both were brought to a halt as the story says "This failed to happen partly because of the impoverishment caused by a long series of wars and revolutions, partly because scientific and technical progress depended on the empirical habit of thought, which could not survive in a strictly regimented society."

The three countries have the "same conditions of life", "In Oceania te prevailing philosophy is called Ingsoc, in Eurasia it is called Neo-Bolshevism, and in EastAsia it is called by a Chinese name usually translated as 🤬-worship, but perhaps better rendered as Obliteration of the Self." It then says "Actually the three philosophies are barely distinguishable, and the social systems which they support are not distinguishable at all."

Winston's book is organized by the separation if chapters "Ignorance Is Strength" (Pg. 184) and "War Is Peace" (Pg. 185).

War will be never ending because as it says on page 184,” Even after enormous upheavals and seemingly irrevocable changes, the same pattern has always reasserted itself, just as a gyroscope will always return to equilibrium, however far it is pushed one way or the other.”. What this quote is trying to say no matter how far of a leap forward to peace we may make there will always be war because it is part of normal everyday life.

Crimestop means the faculty of stopping short, as though by instinct, at the threshold of any dangerous thought. In the book it says “It includes the power of not grasping analogies, of failing to perceive logical errors, of misunderstanding the simplest arguments…” Basically crimestop is protective stupidity (212)

Doublethink is so important to Ingsoc because it is the way the party controls the thoughts of the citizens and makes them believe everything that the party tells them even though deep down they know it is not true. Without it the party would not be able to present itself infallible.  It means the power of holding two beliefs in one’s mind.

In the book it says “Who wields power is not important, provided that the hierarchical structure remains always the same.” They only need big brother to be strict to maintain power, if he didn’t act like a dictator no one would listen and the Party would fall.

Goldstein’s ideas make sense, and I can agree with them in the context of the novel. I believe they’re only applicable, for the most part, to Winston’s society. Of course, the ideas about the three social classes throughout time and the idolized figure created specifically for worship do mirror today’s society, but we should be glad most of it is fiction. And I think we can thank the novel for that - the majority will realize an Orwellian society coming to pass way before it does, and hopefully stop it.
