BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING YOU

Now if you do not know where this slogan is from, it is from George Orwell's 1984. I will be trying to explain what I believe the government of this fictional world was trying to tell the people with this poster.

These posters were hung everywhere to let you know Big Brother was Watching you and the government, ruled by Big Brother, was monitoring your every movement and whatever you do will be seen. It erases any sense of privacy and if someone is thinking about doing something bad they are already committing a thoughtcrime and will be arrested by the thought police. This slogan tells all people who look at it that they are in the simple sense being watched. By 1984 it seems that many people have already adjusted to being watched and this slogan is just their to remind them if they forget. It is hard to imagine what it would be like if the world today was like 1984 and we had these posters on every street corner. So whenever you think or do something just remember, BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING YOU!!!
