14-year-old Erics was in school, but together with the other three little jerks, he did all the wrong things. He relied on all kinds of bad thoughts stimulated by the milk mixed with stimulants in the "milk bar" all day long. The superficial management of his parents, the neurotic intimidation of school teachers, the schadenfreude of the administrator after Erics was arrested, and the indifference of his parents after his release all illustrate the dereliction of family education and school education in this society. This negligence caused the young Erics to be imprisoned and forced to use it as an experiment in a new transformation plan...
Here, the good news began. The entire transformation plan is almost a replica of the "fighting with poison" that has been circulating in your country since ancient times. Under the scenes of a lot of forced violence and pornography, Alex is like the dog under the bell of Pavlov, reflexively avoiding all kinds of violence and pornography like arsenic. At this time, the audience may be wondering that this kid was naughty and bad enough before. This way the bad guy can suppress his arrogance, and it can also make his prodigal son look back. So, what are the directors and millions of viewers hysterically criticizing, yeah, what do they want?
I bet that if I tell this story to my grandfather as it is (of course I have to omit some paragraphs). My grandfather will be a strong supporter of the government-these children, who are young, do not take the right path, but they are more civilized than anyone else. I finally taught you how to do it well. You should be grateful and tell my godfather to serve you with good wine and cigarettes every New Year and New Year... At this time, I always realize how much a person’s growth environment will be when he is young. Big impact. When my grandfather was young, the people were just like the oranges that grew on the trees of the government (true and harmonious) mansion, but these oranges were all uniform military green. They believe that, no matter how much suffering or insult a person suffers, as long as he survives, whoever can survive to the end is a hero. They have been strongly instilled and forgotten that a person has to survive in this world for more than 80 years, and the success and glory will only add up to only a day. It is much more important for a person to go through this process with dignity and freedom than to have a good result.
Let's listen to Winston's story again, after all, we have two protagonists. Winston is an unknown little "civil servant" under the huge state apparatus of "Big Brother". Its responsibility is to falsify all statements in outdated publications that are inconsistent with current developments. For example, on May 10, their Oceanian newspaper published an editorial "Strongly condemns some ulterior motives about the rumors of an imminent earthquake in Manchester", and then on May 12, Manchester really shook. Their first task will not be to fight the earthquake, but to work overtime to turn all newspaper editorials on the 10th into "Experts predict that there will be a major earthquake in Manchester. Residents, please be vigilant", clear? Then Winston even dared to question Big Brother. Holy, and dared to take notes under the telescreen, and even cheated on colleagues. Of course they chose the wrong place, and they came to the thought police's house and turned upside down.
I am most interested in O'Brien's brainwashing of Winston. It was Winston's misbelief in O'Brien that caused all his own sufferings. O'Brien believed that he could not kill people who did not sincerely confess guilt, and even if Winston had a clear mind, he couldn't find his own. Where is the sin. Then came the torture day after day, Winston lived between a trance-like coma and short-lived situations like lightning and flint. Finally, O'Brien’s efforts were rewarded. Winston did not lie in the violence because he was unable to resist, but sincerely believed that the executioners told him "2+2=5", and also believed that "war is peace and freedom, that is, enslavement of ignorance." That is power" and then ashamed of the infidelity of his team’s big brother, voluntarily executed... The
reason why I use "Erics and Winston" in the title is because their life experience is the most brutal and inhuman part of human nature-delete thoughts . They crammed the mainstream as morally good to the unarmed. This method is called "brainwashing" today. This movie and this book tell us that brainwashing is ugly and totally unpopular, and all we can do is protect our minds...
