Brave New World always gets overlooked. I understand why we gravitate towards 1984, however it sure seems like we are much closer to BNW. What is TikTok (read: all of the addictive parts of the internet/smartphones) if not a gramme?
I always thought if Orwell was quite prescient of the eastern block than surely Huxley was even more so about the western.
BNW has proven to be far more prescient, and insidiously so, than 1984
