The Orwellian

The term "Orwellian" refers to a situation, language, or government that resembles the dystopian world described in George Orwell's novel *1984*. It characterizes practices involving pervasive surveillance, oppressive control, and manipulation of truth by authorities. An Orwellian society often suppresses individual freedoms, rewrites history, and uses propaganda to maintain power. Essentially, it describes any environment where honesty is compromised, privacy is eliminated, and authority exercises totalitarian oversight, creating a reality that is oppressive and ideologically driven.
