Orwell was looking backwards at the world war he just came through and how politics and society responded to literal existential threat. History is cyclical so it comes back around, but he was not prophetic lol

I mean it was set in 1984, so it was a prophecy of sorts.

Projecting the past into the future is not prophecy. It’s projection.
