Totalitarian Regimes: A Chilling Comparison of Mao's China and Orwell's 1984 - Mao Tse-Tung's (1893-1976) Chinese propaganda posters echo the all-seeing Big Brother of 1984, directed by Michael Radford, with Richard Burton. Both regimes mastered the art of control through manipulation and fear. The Berlin Wall, once a symbol of East Germany's division, now stands as a reminder at Checkpoint Charlie, an open-air exhibition. Sections of this once impenetrable barrier showcase the stark contrast between freedom and oppression. Mao's China and Orwell's Oceania share a chilling similarity - the suppression of individuality and thought. Yet, art, like the Nazi timebomb, continues to challenge and resist, serving as a beacon of hope against the tyranny rule.
