1984 was a work of fiction, that is undebatable. It did not happen. It's not based in reality whatsoever, and there is no indication that anything written in the novel logically carries from anything else written in the novel. Things happen in 1984 because it makes for a good story, not because that's what would happen next.

It's not "undebatable", it'd just be a waste of time to debate it with you, if you have your conclusion prior to examination.

I see you're not familiar with Orwell and his motives for writing at all.
