Dear O'Brien,
Today, the purpose of this letter is to question you, just like what you have done to all your victims. However, I am merely asking you, not forcing you to answer by asserting “… power over another [man]”. Even if I did have the power, I would not do so, because I am human whereas you are an insane old creature with no kindness for others. Speaking of power, we have reached the purpose of my letter, power. It is not about acquiring power nor about power itself. We all know the reason why the Party wants power, to seek “power entirely for its own sake”, but I am going to talk about how the Party, or more specifically, the Inner Party, uses it and benefits from it.

However, that is very unlikely so a more proper reason is that the government brainwashed them when growing up into thinking they needed to depend on the government. Finally, we come to “IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH.” I believe that this is discouragement for people not avoid knowledge because of the consequences they will face. By not knowing, one would have faith in the Party and will love the Party. Therefore, one does not need to worry about the government vaporizing or catching them. By believing in the Party, you become part of the Party and since the Party is powerful, then you are powerful. One last possible reason that concerns all three is that they are exercises
