In 1984, George Orwell creates a communist society where the government has all of the power over the people and continually exploits in every aspect of their lives. He has the government of 1984, the Party; utilize some distinct methods of ruling the masses that are largely effective. The methods mainly used are exploiting the naturally existing love and hate that people have. By exploiting these emotions the people are filled with a sense of love and adoration for Big Brother, coupled with a fear towards the enemy. This method is particularly successful in the Oceania, the society of 1984, which is a larger metaphor to show the downsides of a totalitarian type government and how too much power in the hands of few is a terrible idea.

By fabricating the data and output margins they can keep Oceania in a constant state of scarcity without appearing so which ends up adding importance to "small privileges" ( 191). These small privileges being so prominent because nobody really has anything you can easily see the distinctions between groups which not only promotes people to work harder it keeps people in their set class systems that the Party has designed for them to stay in.

It is renewable and continues generation to generation without really needing to be forced upon the children or adults. It was an almost perfect way for the people to get out all of the emotions that they felt, predominantly, fear and hate through set methods that the Party made. Some examples of this would be the two minutes of hate, the hate week, when war criminals were brought through town and everybody crowded around. As one can see hear, fear stems from hate, which are both exploited by the government. The way that Winston explains how motivated the general public was that the children were the most involved. According to him, the "most savage yells came from the school children" ( 181). The imagery that this provides uses the senses of seeing and hearing of crowds of angry children that are so loud and motivated by something they don 't really even understand. This could be a little larger representation of how everyone, children and adults get so piled up over something they don 't even understand, or it can be another metaphor to how easily children can be manipulated for the use of the government by fashioning them into weapons against the
