I have not yet finished the ending of this book, but there have been quite a few ideas that I have found interesting within it.
I wonder, if O'Brien deals with people like Winston on such a regular basis that he knows every angle of Winston's thoughts, how many other people had rallied against the party like this? Do you think that maybe, if enough rebels defied Big Brother, someone in the party would start to think about why? The actual logical reasons why these people are so against the party.
Or maybe there is no hope for Oceania. The "brainwashing" has already taken hold of the children, and most all of the adults. What are your thoughts?

Doublethink made Party members never to question anything and fear from Thought Police stopped any possibility of rebellion by proles
.
Today, many people are against WTO, NATO or something like that but that never made anyone to question their purpose or start to reconsider them as institutions.
