Sometimes when I am driving through the squalor and decay on the back roads of America, I can hear Winston say "do it to Julia not to me". And then I hear the media, the politicians, and many churches say "yes, do it to Julia, Julia deserves it."
As telling as that line from 1984 may be, I still think Brave New World was the more prescient of the novels.
Or maybe I just need more coffee.
