Also present is the mysterious leader Big Brother, who has an intense cult of personality. The Party brutally purges anyone who does not fully conform to their regime, using the Thought Police and constant surveillance through telescreens (two-way televisions), cameras and hidden microphones. Those who fall out of favour with the Party become "unpersons", disappearing per damnatio memoriae with all evidence of their existence destroyed.

I'm honestly surprised he ever bothered to learn to drive. He's always been such a lazy piece of shit.

The parallels are genuinely disturbing. It's further disturbing how many Americans are just cool with it.

Not just cool with it, thrilled. Giddy.

They’re angry that they’re too dumb to participate in modern society.

They’re “Ogre” from Revenge of the Nerds.
