Of all things...
There is an abundance of things to pick at society's leanings towards 1984, and this article picks masks and protests? I don't recall protests or PPE being a large part of 1984(honestly, I don't recall it being in there at all, but its been a year or two since last reading).
No comparisons of the telescreens and smartphones? No talk of getting the public enthused over Eurasia and Eastasia, and us always having been at war with them? What about correcting people's thoughts and memories...
Well, now I am an easy going person, but I have to say I am bitterly disappointed by this misleading post title!
