Thank you for sharing that. Very interesting, especially since I read both way back when I was a young rebel.
Not sure I absolutely agree with the end statement though. I think that a mixture of the two are happening. I believe that knowledge of certain things is heavily guarded. Yet it is the drowning in inconsequential information that allows us to be blinded to certain things. Though some of our world touches on Orwellian aspects, it does look like Huxley's reality has become our own.
