1984

i was so hyped for this book but wow oh wow it sucked so bad but just like everyone else i will point out that yes it made some great points on humans and power and yes our world is very fastly approaching an outrageous dystopia (oh who am i kidding? we're already there)

About the not dating thing in this book... already a thing in Australia and lots of other countries. In australia, if you're on welfare due to being disabled or unable to work.. you can't date without them kicking you off welfare or cutting your pay so much that you can't survive. “oh you went on one date with a man? well ask him to pay for your bills, rent, and food”
I heard this happens in other countries too. Just basically making sure disabled people stay poor and don't ask for any more essential stuff that will cost the government money.

I am a believer of free speech, we have nothing without it, we cease to be humans without it so i do find our world right now a bit.... yeah people shouldn't spew hate but it's when people have reasonable opinions and they get kicked from school, work and any future employment because of things they have said is just an evil thing. Forcing others to have the same opinion as you (like this book) will never turn out good. No one will switch sides to agree with you if all you do is yell at them, take away their jobs, doxx them all because they think differently about something.
