1984 The Love Story

1984 The Love Story
:D
It seems hard to refer to love other then its apparent attachment to Big Brother in the context of a novel's narrative, and then from a literary critical standpoint, it seems love would be so highly dysfunctional.  Interpretations of this sort in the past, at least given to past screenings present a view converging on psychological devastation, at least in so far as the darkness enshrouding a given mind, it seems ignorance so much the better.  More then likely what should be more doubtful were that love should ever have existed, except in this case, which should serve to another removed cultural lens.

'Love' for the modern world seems much born of all of its convenience, that is never to to far to approximate itself for a respective culture.  Truly though its harder to see or know what 'love' is in the darker and more hopeless recesses.  At least some should comment even today when all appearances should be what they should but may be far from, how much duress were born of the changing nature of culture and its apparent view of exactly what 'love' were, or at least, I ask how might 'love' so easily perish if any slight change in circumstances made its appearance only seem illusory, or then you might ask more the existential question, 'Did love really exist as you believed it?'

Then interchangeably it seems if there weren't oblivion, or those having sought to forget, the nature of one's ignorance to any other experience, having effected the nature of what love should mean, or at least you find yourself saying, while yes a form of materialism and civilization should seem attached to the formation of an idea that one should call 'love' in the terms of romance, the other worlds that exist, neither having conceptualized this exactly in the space and time of words or ideas (or scarcely having the time to think so extensively and deeply on this subject matter), should express how different the idea of what 'love' should mean.  I wouldn't argue beyond this point to the non existence of phenomenon, other then to say, its also hard to relate to a given devastation of this gravitational type, more likely the I of today, would question as in doubting the nature of such reality, in defense of previous ideas, desires, wants, and so forth...or that seems one potential avenue if hopelessness hadn't rendered one dead.  However, from the objective view, it hardly seems the 'ultimate love' story, or as one might see it typified of repetitions in human history, more likely a place hardly resolved to the comfort of pages, or suspension of disbelief or however tragedies should be re enacted these days.  No less scripting a foul with the sort of character that one should desire in a present age, or cultural revisionism in so many words. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/We_(novel)  The Russian novel of a similar dystopian chord and setting, provides little help as to character dynamics either.  At least if it were bothersome that so many should be programmed to live as pragmatically simple lives as possible for the sake of state efficiency, the character's themselves in way should be entirely dull relative to the world in which we live, and then one consider's the statement "I don't want to live in a world where there is little creativity."  Which expresses the doubt that there is much faith in the nature of what should be liberal arts at least enhancing the lives of others, a future world in some ways could be described possibly by human behaviors that should seem so bland, at least that some criteria for deviation were set as it were to a given norm and uniformity of social behaviors, that this seems to relate to the nature of thinking, if it were that one were a little less sympathetic to another's cause that weren't the states cause, its obvious why the idea of uniformity of social behaviors should be advantageous, and why, for instance, cultural iconoclasm s have taken place in history, aside from this present cultural digression, its also harder to more clearly see where and why this shouldn't be a phase in some other ways for a given country/civilization.  After all its harder to see more clearly that it were under siege in some ways (surely while something symbolic should have happened on 9/11...events then weren't integral to a civilization's existence), and those invoked to living in the constant presence of fear hallmarking its perceived self destruction, more likely when the stakes were higher in the past, or perceived this way, greater social uniformity in the presence of mindsets on issues pertaining to a given civilizations integral security might well be the logical step of cultural revolutions (however, awful these were).  In today's present age, this I argue is logically as artificial as ever, or it seems driven in this way, by the convenience and ease of a state's hand in doing so, and merely happenstance excused by the proximity of events, or given to apparently weakly argued derivatives that only become less so if a given social tap isn't renewed. As in revisiting something of the propaganda feeds in 1984, namely, concerning its wars abroad, its not hard to see that there should be something more then 'romance' lurking in the novel, and that at least any number of social activities could be easily substituted for any other outlawed social behavior.  

As to the present, it seems more so that if you were likely to find romance 'love' these days, it were defined by socio economic, class born of cultural, ethnic, and so forth relations...and then this were defined even more heavily by the weight of impending social pressure (yes even in a supposed democracy that should exist free from all the other world alms of arranged marriages), not as though it weren't just a re write from previous ages, all the same, there should be commonality, removing the very essence of industrialism that has been so en grained into the fabric of modern cultures, but at least something of horrific common factor, it is possible, it weren't already true, that governments have vested interests potentially in match making these days, who one should associate with, who one should talk to, and the, of course, very essence of determinism marking more strongly the nature of one's course in life.  Then government should seem more likely in its propaganda to re write this narrative in the form of being unseen and generally unknown/ambivalent or friendly patron alike.  In today's day and age, it seems, of course, seems more complex relative to the unsophisticated depictions of absolutism imagined, and then sadly, as I've read and heard at times, neither shamed at times by the worst of behavior, and the essence of the problem as related to the potential of massive states control, is that in reality it often won't be clearly resolved to the models of fiction as in comparison.  Likely as it has happened in the past, the complexity of marginalization and discrimination (using this broadly outside the definition of race alone) where forms of state repression and dystopia exist side by side a given larger functioning state.  In this paradoxical landscape, while power elite could entertain dangerous 'ideas', true punishment would be reserved to the periphery or the broad margins of a given society or given likely in this modern age to class distinction (which has at times also be something of a racial one...for example, the disparity of criminal punishment for drug offenses).  If you were wondering about the nature of these characters in the modern context, much is relative in so far as relation to their plight, which at times couldn't be more further removed relative to the Twilight following which one should imagine weren't dwelling in that space, that sort of determinism should seem reserved for the ghettos and the marginalized.
