ARE YOU A PROLE? (1984)

In fact, I do think that we are proles. We are in a way ignorant, young and careless! Sometimes we don't even care for anything of importance. We're slobs, and most of the times won't do anything without someone being in our face about it. We don't do our homework unless remind or forced. We don't clean our rooms unless we're yelled at. We don't listen to what people tell us, until we MAKE THE MISTAKE ourselves. We don't tell the truth until we're caught in a lie. We don't do anything.
WE CLOSE OUR EYES IN THE FACE OF FEAR.
WE CLOSE OUR EYES BECAUSE WE ARE IGNORANT AND SCARED.
Very much like the proles in the book. We are proles. We don't really care for things in our life, like decision making, school etc... so why would we care for things that we can't see. If you close your eyes against truth then your walking with your eyes closed. If you are IGNORANT, you don't see. In the book they mention how many proles don't even understand or see how, the government is taking over, or abusing their rights. Much like us . We don't ask questions when we need to. We question stupid things like
why are you wearing that?
why did you break up with me?
why is she wearing my outfit?
why does he hate me?
why did you leave me?
MY QUESTION IS..
WHY DO YOU CARE?
WHY ARE YOU SO IGNORANT?
The proles in the book do the same thing we do... they spend all their lives working and arguing about stupid stuff.PROLES OR "WE" just want to live average lives, always relying on others to do things for you. The only outcome of this is abuse, when you let someone else do things for you they end up taking advantage which is what the government did to the people in the book and something that is happening today. We have no power over political decision making ALTHOUGH WE THINK WE DO. We always except things as meant to be. We always consider ourselves inferior, and don't think about more important things because everyone just assumes they can't do it. That they won't be able to or that it's not possible.. so in return no one tries or gives a dam. People just accept their situations and try to move on. What we say in return is simply "HEY, THAT'S LIFE!" Not realizing that it could be so much more.
