1984 Blog #3

I think that Big Brother has won in the end. In the last sentence of the book when it says " [Winston] loved Big Brother." This quote directly contrasts with earlier in the book when Winston constantly talks bad about Big Brother and how much he dislikes it. This shows that the One State was able to brainwash Winston enough to completely change his views. The One State could be brought down if more people supported Winston and were all able to overpower the system. Also if people stuck with their ideas and didn't give into the One State it could be overpowered. I think that Winston goes on to never question the One State again and live as if nothing ever had happened to him.
