1984- Bad Times

From what I have read, I see Oceania to be a dark, depressing, torn-up city along with damaged buildings, after all they did just come back from a war. They have a few high-tech things to keep their society stimulated but although that may be what is going on. Part of the community fears the ruling of a new type of government that controls almost everything. Winston's main problem is trying to agree with the party, in other words, having a a difficult time following through with the criteria of Oceania. For example, Winston wrote in his diary, "DOWN WITH BIG BROTHER", showing off how rebellious he his. Another example would be when he's watching the Two Minute Hate video, he wasn't even participating in the "hate" along with everybody else. Not until he catches eye contact with a man named, O'brien. After he and O'brien meet eye to eye Winston begins to rise and yell and belch out foul movement towards the video of Goldstein. One of the people who rebelled and one of the more reason why people are so against the video.
