It's called hate speech. If there ever were a more Orwellian concept, it would be difficult to find. For much like the concept of thought crimes in George Orwell 's novel 1984, hate crimes and hate speech suppose intent on the part of the perpetrator that may or may not have any basis in reality.t is indeed the pursuit of a utopian society from which such speech codes emanate. For when George Orwell wrote 1984, his dystopian vision of a future society governed by totalitarianism, it was the excesses of communism he had in mind. Orwell's novel foreshadowed the current movement toward thought control.
Throughout its publication history, Nineteen Eighty-Four has been either banned or legally challenged, as subversive or ideologically corrupting, like Aldous Huxley 's Brave New World (1932), We (1924) by Yevgeny Zamyatin, Kallocain (1940) by Karin Boye and Fahrenheit 451 (1951) by Ray Bradbury.he introduction to the Penguin Books Modern Classics edition of Nineteen Eighty-Four, reports that Orwell originally set the novel in 1980 but he later shifted the date to 1982, then to 1984. The final title may also be a permutation of 1948, the year of composition.
