I haven't decided if 1984 was a prophetic work of fiction or a handbook of "how-to" for our government.

@PeterYos No, it is more about the USSR.

1984 was an indirect critique to Stalin´s Russia.

I don't think it is about the USSR, it more matches with the USA actualy

The only present condition relevant is a loss of self confidence in the ruling class, in a democracy that implies the entire populous.
