Schools force you to read 1984 for two reasons:

1) So they can tell you what it means

2) So you never read it again

I wish I knew a single school that forced students to read 1984 in my generation in the US.

I taught the book in 2017. Is it not taught anymore?

Prior to that? Over here on the east coast we never read it in the 2010s, nor knew anyone that has known anymore than the name of the book.

Wow. That's sad.

Yeah read it for the first time a couple years ago on my own.

Yeah, we were never forced to read it. It was on a banned book list, which honestly got me more interested in it than forcing me to read it.
