Angels Dancing on the head of a Pin

1994 v Brave New World - Orwell warns that we will be overcome by an externally imposed oppression. But in Huxley's vision, no big brother is required to deprive people of their autonomy, maturity and history. As he saw it, people will come to love their oppression, to adore the technologies that undo their capacities to think...In short, Orwell feared that what we hate will ruin us. Huxley feared that what we love will ruin us.
