I think 1984 is supposed to represent totalitarian societies like China and I think A Brave New World is supposed to be more similar to a capitalistic democratic society kind of like America for example. My opinion is that i think both writers were right but with different types of societies
The writers had different opinions about how the worst possible outcome of the future for society would come about and what it would look like and how it would function in their view.
we humans are unnecessarily sentimental, i mean you are on reddit, you have seen posts of people complaining that they either hate or are fed up with their handicapped or autistic siblings or children. Why give life to these kids, and then make the lives of others hell, when we can not just put them through the misery of having a painful existence.
If you’re saying the world of 1984 is worse than that of Brave New World, you are comparing them.

I don’t think 1984 by definition has to be communist, we just don’t ever get capitalist revolutions which the ruling class exploits
No one gonna comment on how this mf just said he supports eugenics???
Lmao saying the quiet bit loud
With eugenics I'd be dead (diabetes) fuck eugenics
I think what he meant was he supports genetic engineering to eliminate undesirable traits. I don’t think that qualifies as eugenics.
It's two different ways of looking at the same thing.
I much prefer the BNW way
Sounds a lot like I’m being told what I can and can’t do. Sort of irony…

That plus 1984 is ten times more interesting and better written. Huxley is uber pretentious.
Orwell is more creative with his writing.
I enjoyed both of the writers visions, though I’d prefer BNW’s future over 1984’s every single day.
