The term "Orwellian" refers to the ideas and themes presented in the works of author George Orwell, particularly in his novel 1984. It describes a society characterized by oppressive government control, where individual freedoms are suppressed, and truth is manipulated. In such a regime, surveillance is pervasive, and dissent is harshly punished. Totalitarianism is a political system where the state holds absolute power over all aspects of life. In a totalitarian regime, the government seeks to control not only political and economic institutions but also the thoughts and beliefs of its citizens. This often involves propaganda, censorship, and the elimination of opposition.
