Comment on The only science fiction in 1984 by Orwell is that there is a drug that could make you "Happy"

And we have let all infrastructure start to fail as long as it isnt a shiny thing rich people interact with.
I dunno man its getting pretty 1984.

1984 forced all of that.
Brave New World, people LOVE it and can’t imagine any other way to live.
Brave New World is the nightmare dystopia we CHOOSE, not the one that gets forced on us.

Oh for sure people view the idea of being reduced to an object of the state apparently shockingly happily enough.
But we have a department of war that our dear leader of just got a peace medal and awards. Like the doublespeak is here. And we dont spit people out of bottles already premade for their role.
Its definitely a mix of them.
