1984 numero uno

Newsspeak is the language in Oceania. It's purpose is to make people's vocabulary smaller, because then they will not know as many words and have no way to think other thoughts. It's actually a really good idea, how would you rebel if you didn't know the words to say.

Facecrime is how one acts when they are thinking about something they shouldn't. They can get caught by a certain wrong gesture or movement that will give away the person's thoughts. And apparently that can get you in a lot of trouble.

They change it to fit what is happening now. They can destroy anything that involved something they don't like and change it to something they do. The people who rewrite it are the only ones who will remember but they soon forget. Scary but it probably could happen.
