1984 is a book and movie that many people from East could relate to, as it shows how dictatorships can control our actions and thoughts. This story is a must read/watch because its themes are still relevant today. In our digital world, where surveillance and control are growing concerns, Orwell’s vision warns us about the dangers of losing our privacy and freedom. The novel offers a chilling critique of totalitarianism and the dangers of unchecked power. Despite its bleak tone, the compelling narrative and enduring relevance of its themes make it a must-read for anyone interested in political and social commentary. Orwell’s masterful portrayal of a dystopian future serves as a powerful warning about the potential consequences of sacrificing freedom for security.

Don’t you think it’s trivial now? It’s like Mona Lisa, everyone knows the idea without reading. If book doesn’t teach you something fresh it’s not worth reading. Also the whole concept of totalitarianism as defined by political science is problematic and political in itself.

But for Gen Z it's not that much fresh. In the east people are still struggling with it and sometimes it could be a little helpful to mention it. But overall you are right. But our life is entangled with politics if we want or not and the concept of power is always problematic
