Computer says...

In George Orwell's *1984*, people comply with the totalitarian regime primarily due to intense psychological manipulation, fear, and propaganda. The Party, led by Big Brother, controls nearly every aspect of life, making rebellion or dissent nearly impossible. Here are key reasons why compliance is so pervasive:

1. **Fear and Surveillance**: The Party uses constant surveillance through telescreens and informants. People fear being caught for even thinking anti-Party thoughts (thoughtcrime), which can lead to arrest, torture, and "vaporization" (disappearing without a trace).

2. **Thought Control**: The Party manipulates the way people think through Newspeak (a controlled language) and doublethink (the ability to hold contradictory beliefs). This limits people's capacity to question the regime.

3. **Propaganda**: The Party rewrites history, alters facts, and floods the populace with false information, ensuring that citizens have no reliable source of truth. This creates confusion and forces people to accept the Party's version of reality.

4. **Isolation**: The Party isolates individuals by preventing close personal relationships, loyalty to anything other than the Party, or meaningful conversations. This makes it harder to organize resistance or form alliances.

5. **Psychological Torture**: In cases where people do dissent (like Winston and Julia), the Party breaks their spirit through extreme psychological and physical torture, ensuring that no one escapes mental submission to Big Brother.

All of these mechanisms ensure that compliance is both coerced and internalized, making resistance almost unthinkable.
