Ensure the middle class worships the higher class and don't realise their privileges to keep them working hard.

Keep the high-class constantly in power and having control over anyone they want.

Without words to describe a better life, individuals are unable to conceptualise a different future.

A feature of dictators is that they burn books and kill intellectuals. This way, a more vulnerable and less educated population has a higher chance to look at the dictator as a solution.

Everybody in Oceania consumes the same products, such as Victory Gin and Victory Cigarettes. A fear of death prevents the rise of openly sharing a hope for creativity and individualism.]]> 2021-09-26 11:40:49 UTC https://padlet.com/to66502/8wiug5xl4bhjaui5/wish/1768448124 Creating a Climate of Calamity to66502 https://padlet.com/to66502/8wiug5xl4bhjaui5/wish/1768465216 2021-09-26 11:57:49 UTC https://padlet.com/to66502/8wiug5xl4bhjaui5/wish/1768465216 to66502 https://padlet.com/to66502/8wiug5xl4bhjaui5/wish/1768480354 Set the population's mindset to one of survival and impending danger. Examples of this in 1984 is an impending enemy invasion, and in the real world, immigration crisis, economic recessions, and the spreading of fake news.

Making the population vulnerable, either physically by low food rations, poor quality of life, or mentally by constant surveillance, reinforces the Party's rule. This is shown in the aftermath of Winston and Julia's arrest.

Winston is shown to be a physically weak person through his varicose ulcer and frailty. Syme is also presented as physically unthreatening but mentally capable, therefore a top priority to vapourise.]]> 2021-09-26 12:12:46 UTC https://padlet.com/to66502/8wiug5xl4bhjaui5/wish/1768480354 to66502 https://padlet.com/to66502/8wiug5xl4bhjaui5/wish/1768485820 The war ensures the people in power stay in power.

The hole that these emotions used to fill can be replaced with a desire for violence.

The connotations of 'friend' is someone you would like to spend your happy moments with, while the connotation of comrade is just someone you work with.]]> 2021-09-26 12:28:02 UTC https://padlet.com/to66502/8wiug5xl4bhjaui5/wish/1768497933 to66502 https://padlet.com/to66502/8wiug5xl4bhjaui5/wish/1768500247 A country that strives for long term growth and raising quality of life would entail economic growth, which would mean threatening the balance of power in Oceania.]]> 2021-09-26 12:30:03 UTC https://padlet.com/to66502/8wiug5xl4bhjaui5/wish/1768500247 Re-writing the past to66502 https://padlet.com/to66502/8wiug5xl4bhjaui5/wish/1768505015 Limiting the past means individuals are unable to think of a better future. ]]> 2021-09-26 12:33:52 UTC https://padlet.com/to66502/8wiug5xl4bhjaui5/wish/1768505015
