I do believe a society based on hate could survive as O’Brien says it could. Just look at Oceania it has been surviving on hate for more than 20 years. As long as a nation is strong in brainwashing its citizens and “defeating” its enemies, the nation is capable of surviving on hate. O’Brien describes the future for Oceania’s brainwashed citizens by telling Winston “There will be no loyalty, except loyalty towards the Party. There will be no love except for Big Brother. There will be no laughter, except the laugh of triumph over a defeated enemy.” (267) Oceania knows if love and friendship become abolished, the Party would be able to survive on its citizens hate. All its citizen would be equal and the same. There would be no rebellious group
