1984 Script

This is our land.
A land of peace and of plenty.
A land of harmony and hope.
This is our land. Oceania.
These are our people.
The workers, the strivers, the builders.
These are our people.
The builders of our world, struggling ...
fighting, bleeding ... dying.
On the streets of our cities and
on the far-flung battlefields.
Fighting against the mutilation
of our hopes and dreams. Who are they?
Eurasia! Eurasia!
They are the dark armies.
The dark, murdering armies of Eurasia.
In the barren deserts of Africa
and India ... on the oceans of
Australasia ... courage, strength,
and youth are sacrificed.
Sacrificed to barbarians,
whose only honor is atrocity.
But even as we grasp at victory ...
there is a cancer, an evil tumor ...
growing, spreading in our midst.
Shout, shout ... shout out his name!
Goldstein!
Nothing the Party says is true.
Nothing the Party does is good.
Even the war itself isn't real.
The Party wants you to believe
we are at war ... so as to channel your
aggresions away from their rightful
target ... the Party.
Big Brother is not real.
He is pure fiction, created by the Party.
The real rulers of the State ...
are unknown, faceless manipulators ...
who, because they are not known ...
are able to wield power without
let or hindrance.
People of Oceania, you are being duped.
The Party doesn't serve the people,
it serves itself. We are not at war
with Eurasia. Death! Death! Traitor!
You are being made into obedient ...
stupid slaves of the Party.
Open your eyes. See the evil that
is happening to you.
The Party drops bombs on its own citizens.
Traitor! It is the Party,
not the Eurasians, who are our enemies.
Rise up. Throw off the yoke.
You have nothing to lose, and
everything to gain.
People of Oceania.
Big, Big, Big "..." Innuendo,
deleted. Intransigence, rendered
as crime. Inversion ...
