It's called hate speech. If there ever were a more Orwellian concept, it would be difficult to find. For much like the concept of thought crimes in George Orwell 's novel 1984, hate crimes and hate speech suppose intent on the part of the perpetrator that may or may not have any basis in reality.t is indeed the pursuit of a utopian society from which such speech codes emanate. For when George Orwell wrote 1984, his dystopian vision of a future society governed by totalitarianism, it was the excesses of communism he had in mind. Orwell's novel foreshadowed the current movement toward thought control.
A thoughtcrime is an Orwellian neologism used to describe an illegal thought. The term was popularized in the dystopian novel Nineteen Eighty-Four by George Orwell, first published in 1949, wherein thoughtcrime is the criminal act of holding unspoken beliefs or doubts that oppose or question Ingsoc, the ruling party.
