I had a pretty scary dream last night. I was living in a weird place. Kind Of like a bunker city? Anyway, everything was connected through corridors and elevators and stairs and it was all indoors. So I was having lunch and this guy joined me. I had met him before and I had run away from him because he was extremely religious and had tried to convert me. I played it cool, joking about the fact that he had freaked me out. He agreed that it had been funny, but then started saying things like "but now you have seen the light, right?" and soon he was going on and on about his weird religion. I had to agree, because the whole thing had gotten quite popular and people who did not believe in those things were getting arrested for weird, senseless crimes and then simply disappearing. So after lunch, I went to the classroom, because? Anyway, I sat down and realised that the teacher was not there. There was a dude, he was between 40 and 50. He was tall and he carried himself with a lot of confidence. He was charismatic, not in a nice, friendly way. He was just very... everybody just had to look at him and listen to him. So he started talking about how our society works and the rules and it was all so stupid. We basically had no rights and we were supposed to be happy about it. And everybody was happy. Then, he looked at me and said that we had met before, but I always refused to play a game with him. I laughed it off and tried my best to be as dumb as everybody else. I had two friends close to me and they were both disgusted by the man. When the day was almost over, he said something to me and I decided that enough was enough. I used the opportunity to stand up and start shouting at everybody that the whole thing was a mess and that they could not be happy with all that crap. I told them we had to fight for our rights. The guy hit me, but I carried on. I think a few people really listened to me. Some of them were not buying the crap anyway, but at least they now knew they could trust me. It was a mess, though. I woke up soon after this, but it was scary how people simply decided to act like everything was okay. I blame this to the fact that I read 1984 a few days ago.
