Michelt Rosales 1984 Quiz

In the book 1984 by George Orwell there's this passage "WAR IS PEACE, FREEDOM IS SLAVERY, IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH," (Orwell 17) and it's the three slogans of the Party. Big Brother and the Party control the life's of people in Oceania. They have the language "Newspeak" and it's doublethink which is the ability to believe two contradictory ideas at once. Big Brother and the Party don't like people that are too clever, too intelligence, and speak too plainly. They have posters up with these slogans everywhere in the city. They want people to do as they say, believe whatever they say, the people from Oceania basically don't think for themselves the party is controlling them in every way they can. I think "War is peace" means at the end of the war the result is peace. The "Freedom is slavery" in 1984 the people from Oceania think their free but actually there slaves. The "Ignorance is strength" i think its that Big Brother wants to be so powerful, he wants to keep them dumb and he'll have control.
