Over 115 million and another 15 million for safety and cleaning of public spaces.

Orwell since recent events in time with COVID has been right with children being scared to leave their homes after major lockdowns and quarantines. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10158760/ Tue, 04 Feb 2025 11:22:33 -0500 https://writingpartners.net/documents/4012?scroll_to=35861 https://writingpartners.net/documents/4012?scroll_to=35861 This reminded me of Hunger Games where the government controlled how Katniss and Peeta's relationship would hold up after being selected to play in the games. They were forced to fight against each other despite their love for each other.

This was totally against Big Brothers' rules and orders regarding what Winston could do and feel about others. Winton and Julia leave the Ministry to talk about their mutual hate for the Party and end up kissing. This was very rebellious towards the party. We start to see how fast Winston is growing away from the party and acting more rebellious. The chapter doesn't fully explain what happened between Winston and Julia, and it remains mysterious.

This establishes a clear focus on the prompt. The thesis mentions Sotomayor's use of these techniques to convey her identity and emotions. However, it could be more specific about how these choices reveal her struggles and achievements related to her identity. For instance, how does her use of emotional diction reflect her journey towards embracing her identity?

I believe this would be a leading factor as to why clear language could be used this way, but I do think that what Harris is saying isn't insincere, because it is not yet justifiable.

I do see why Orwell says that chaos is the reason for it because the two subjects are both heavily involved with hatred. Tue, 10 Sep 2024 11:18:25 -0400
