    1984 argues that humanity is destroyed by totalitarianism; Brave New World by Aldous Huxley argues that human individualism creates the conditions for totalitarian rule.

      Brave New World by Aldous Huxley [goodreads.com] argues that human individualism creates the conditions for totalitarian rule.

      Uh, not really. Considering that the only character to show signs of individuality is driven to madness and eventual suicide. You are reading a bit much between the lines, but I expect nothing less from some spastic emotionally immature troll named "alternative_right"
