Reagan got re-elected.
Was that good or bad?
If you're trolling, please don't.
I am trying to simply understand the true significance of 1984. Most online searches point me to George Orwell's book. I am definitely not trolling. Being young and born in the 80s it is hard to understand these kind of things.
Your best bet is to continue your online searches, as they are pointing you in the right direction.
:) I think it is the book but I have heard folks use it in a different context like the other guy who said Reagan.
