The “miracle” was that it was not naval vessels that rescued them but instead ordinary people that sailed across the English Channel in their own boats. Recently, as part of my history class, we…

The ever-growing possibility of the panoptic design and totalitarianism ideologies are shown entirely within the pages of 1984 by George Orwell. The mind within, is a trap. Imagine living within the dystopian society of 1984, where thinking is wrong. Big Brother is the trigger that catches all those who question Big brother. There is only one way to survive in a world where ideas are commonly practiced and enforced is to become one with yourself. Which boils down and leaves but one choice, trust…
