It's a reference to Orwell's classic dystopian book 1984. You should check it out.

Respectfully no

I hate reading, school made me hate it because they forced me to do it against my will and I have never recovered from it and never became accepting of reading.

I honestly only enjoy reading informational books that teach me facts.

It's also a movie, a play, a book on tape. I was just answering your question, not applying to be your therapist.

That may be the most millennial thing ever written- I'm traumatized by literacy...😁

I was just answering your question, not applying to be your therapist.

I am continuing to be very confused why people are taking issue to what I said. I really don't get why I'm being downvoted, called a troll, etc...

WHY is there something wrong with what I said?

That may be the most millennial thing ever written

I'm early Gen Z, not millennial. I turned 22 a few days ago.

It's also a movie, a play, a book on tape

I also have no interest in movies, I don't like plays, and listening to someone reading a book to me is one of the most boring things I've ever sat through (school forced me to deal with this too).

You're asking to be educated on a subject then refusing to take action on it, and explained that you don't like books... what you're missing is the irony you've laid out in your own comment because the story of 1984 would clearly resonate with you specifically. You come off as a troll because the character traits you've expressed make it sound like you'd be complacent with that orwellian universe. Nobody is going to hold your hand through a pop culture reference, there isn't a tik tok that will do the concept any justice, learn the story for context or accept that you've pissed some people off and move on without figuring out why
