A Warning To The Youth

I Big Brother, urge you, the youth of Oceania to be loyal and law abiding citizens all your lives. To do your part you can do many things. One of them is reporting the people who you believe or know have committed an unlawful act. Unfortunately you see these people can’t help what they do, due to being mentally insane. If reported early these people have a chance to be cured thanks to the help of the inner party, but left untreated they can do many horrible acts such as thought crime. I am saddened to say that it’s even a possibility that some of you, the youth of Oceania who are our future may be insane. You see this insanity is very common in the young, and so I urge you to turn yourselves in as well. This insanity makes people think of delusions such as false events and even think that I and the party are bad. Sadly, there are cases where the individual has gone so mad that there is no reaching them, and become very dangerous. The only reasonable thing to do is give them a quick and painless death because life would be too agonizing. I assure you there is nothing to worry about, the inner party and I have everything under control so we can safeguard your future with us.
