BIG BROTHER

I was reading some of George Orwell’s books and I kind of liked his thoughts very much. We often worry about the corrupted politicians and the loopholes in the current political system etc. George Orwell put up a good argument from his side about the political system. In his book 1984, the protagonist lives in a totalitarian society led by the big brother( a political party).He abhors his oppressed life. It is a society, where a crime called thought crime(bit exaggerated) exists. He eventually falls in love with a girl(it is a crime too) and rebels against the party by collaborating with a rebel group called brotherhood, but somehow an inner party person traps him,whacks his ass off and brain washes him. This might seem like a simple plot like the Indian movie version(boy-girl love, parents unhappy, boy whacks villain, parents happy,boy-girl marry), but if one understands the meaning behind the sentences it will be a wonderful and thought provoking book. Any book that makes you think out of the box is worth reading.
In a society, people are categorized into wealthy, middle and poor classes and these categories are mapped to intellectual and dumb people, respectively. This is the general trend in any society even if it is a democratic country. If one is poor and dumb, may god help him. Usually, countries are run by wealthy and intellectual people. The main problem is with the dumb people( these people are like sheep who need shepherd dogs to guard them) ;-) and they fall easily for the intellectual person's speeches. They do not try to find out what he/she is getting at, through their speeches. They would rather waste days arguing about the emotional gestures of the orator (same thing happened with Hitler. We watched some of his speeches on TV and it was completely in German with English subtitles,of course. Nobody in the room didn't even get the faintest idea about the speech but everybody got convinced that he was an excellent orator. Quite emotional!). Wealth buys most of the things like the mastercard's slogan "There are some things money can't buy. For everything else, there's MasterCard." but it is not good enough to run a country. Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely, with the absolute power in their hands these intellectual cum wealthy ;-) people get most out of the rest. As long as these intellectual people are there, their main job is to make the rest of the classes insecure by showing them an enemy. This is a perfect way to stay in power. For example, if you and you friends are getting bashed by another group, you stick together and try to resist. If your same group is left free, you are bound to quarrel. When these ruling people are unbearable, there raises a revolution led but intellectual people only but with lesser wealth( like the French Revolution).Eventually, they depose the ruling party and not yet corrupted by power they might think about the downtrodden people and may bring new reforms. As time passes by, power corrupts them too. I know I am beating around the bush :-) whats my point is political system is vicious never ending circle. One cannot expect it to be free from corruption unless we devise a computerized political party :-)
One thing we have to do is, stop being like sheep. I mean, stop following others even if it inspires you just think over it before you support something and we should stop dynasty following. I couldn't believe my eyes, when I saw people jumping on each other like monkeys as they saw preeti or petty or pretty (whatever) jinta throwing T-shirts into the crowd in a IPL match, there was a stampede(WTH!when I asked my friend about it, he tweeted saying thats where enjoyment lie!). What I want to say is,We should Stop worshiping others, if he/she is good at something appreciate him/her(see I am not a male chauvinist) do not make them demigods. If people would have given it a thought about Hitler’s intentions millions of lives would have been saved in the world war II. Brutality at that time was at its peak that people built huge electrical machines to kill Jews in large numbers as they thought killing Jews with guns is a wastage of ammunition! Every human has evil in him/her by nature .It will have no bounds, once provoked as we have witnessed in the world war II. So the answer to all this is think individually just don't follow others blindly, think about your welfare and then others. If you are a spiritual person it is a different story, I am talking about an average individual living in a society. Anyway this political system is a never ending cycle if u end it then that will be the beginning again somehow humans want to be differentiated either by caste, creed or religion or wealth or whatever. There will always be poor people but the only thing is their standard of living can be increased. May be a person living in a good individual house might be called a poor person after some 200 years who knows .Even poverty is relative.Hail Einstein!!:)
