The sheep lives it’s whole life in fear of the wolf only to be eaten by the shepherd.
@NinjaSushi2
Ай бұрын
Interesting take but ultimately flawed. Without the shepard the sheep would be dead long ago. There are much more than wolves trying to eat sheep. There are even carnivorous plants known to entangle and starve sheep to death! (really cool stuff) Other creatures come and feast on the sheep and the bugs eat the carcass so that all the juices and everything break down into the root system feeding the plant. I mean sheep are dumb enough to walk off a cliff so like it's a nice edgy statement but when you put facts to reality, it holds no water.

Not really. Sheep are stupid as hell. Literally the dumbest animal. If the wolf doesn't kill the sheep and if the shepherd doesn't kill the sheep, there are a dozen other things out to kill it. Lol Even carnivorous plant will catch the sheep and eat them. That and the sheep will walk off a cliffs or all kinds of other dumb shit. Nice edgy saying but in reality literally everything is out to kill the sheep, not just the wolf. If it weren't for the shepherd the sheep would be dead long ago.
@morezombies9685
Ай бұрын
You know the analogy falls a part because sheep are generally treated well and not used for food because sheep make wool. Cows and pigs yield way more meat. Generally they live better and longer lives than they would in the wild... Which is due to being in captivity for so long that their hair never stops growing. They are completely dependent on the farmer to shear them. So they cannot live in the wild anymore, not the sheep you see on farms. The sheep literally have no choice but to live on a farm in modern society. It is within their DNA to be captives.

For those of you who don’t know, this book wasn’t written to be futuristic. It’s based on Orwells own feelings and experiences during the Spanish Civil War. “The Spanish Civil War catalyzed Orwell and made him highly critical of authoritarian tendencies on the left. Much of the Party's brutality, paranoia, and betrayals are drawn from the Great Purges of 1936-1938 in the Soviet Union.”

I am going through the same path in real life (the differences are in the nuances). I know it’s all quite unpleasant. The worst part is the horror: you know the end and you fear it. You desperately try to break free, to do something, but each time you are pulled back. Sometimes this makes you immobile, sometimes indifferent. Friends don’t understand you and avoid you, they get lost; memories of those you loved evoke only unpleasant feelings. You start to despise people, not understanding what they find in that daily hustle: why they laugh, why they work, why they have children.

I found this book highly disturbing when it was still fiction. Now that it's reality, it's like a nightmare about which I'd been warning for ages, but no one would listen. Far too many prefer to remain blind and deaf to the truth of what is happening around them, willfully absorbing and celebrating the lies, finding comfort in delusion, and embracing the shackles into which they've willingly surrendered themselves, their liberty, and any hope for their posterity.

Didn't know how much of the modern west has been influenced by this book, words like "orwellian", "memory holed", "double think", new speak = political correctness. Calling people comrade as not to define people as mr or ms, the "thought police" I am theologically and politically conservative. This book is amazing and if I was biblically illiterate or naive, I would assume George Orwell was some kind of prophet. The wonderful art while holding seemingly contradictory concepts is mind boggling.

What do you think it might be? I never noticed anything too peculiar. A couple of strangely-pronounced words, perhaps.

I do wonder if some of the book has been censored, however, since I hear there are multiple editions of the book...

Some editions contain 9 rather than 10 chapters in the second part. In creating this audiobook, we used the version available in the Gutenberg project which contains a division into 9 chapters. Publishers like to slightly change parts of books to extend copyright indefinitely. We don't know which version is "correct," but using the Gutenberg version is simply the safer option from a legal standpoint.
