If a government exercises as much power over its people as the government of Oceania did, it is practical to think that is little chance of the government collapsing from the inside out. Try to relate this to the situation in North Korea.

Kim Jong II is the dictator of a complete totalitarian government, or in other words, a government/political system where the state does not recognize any limits to its authority and power and which strives to regulate every aspect in the lives of its populace. Human Rights Watch, a non-governmental organization committed to protecting, researching, and advocating the human rights of people around the world have quoted the North Korean government as “One of the most closed and repressive governments in the world” and as well as a “Human rights hell on earth.” Kim Jong Il ruled, and stayed and power by the use of fear that was generated by the human rights violations which all fall under the same motive, superior governmental control. (“North”) In the 1950’s, as part of Kim Jong Il’s attempt to eliminate any form of opposition to the government, a type social class system known as loyalty groups was established. These groups dictated an individual’s class and privileges by classifying individuals according to their national allegiance, ancestral actions, and their family actions during the modern time. These groups were mainly based upon an individual’s loyalty to the government and obedience to the “Dear Leader”, as the North Korean citizens were forced to call Kim Jong Il.

Brigham Young had great organizational and better fear inducing skills. Once Joseph Smith died he was able to take complete control much like a dictator does when an unloved monarch dies or is deposed of.
With this in mind, the common attitude in the United States was, as it continues to be today, that communism is evil manifest in a government. For this evil to manifest itself in a government that is supposedly of, for, and by the people, created a fear that the devil, or evil in general, had found its way into people in the United States. And, similar to Hale’s ideas in The Crucible, who better for this evil to envelope than those in the government? Those who govern the United States are supposed to be trusted to uphold the values for which this country stands. The evil, the communists, would have nothing to profit from infiltrating those who wielded no power.
The story 1984 is twist on how the world would be If communism took over and shows how terrible people's lives would be if such a thing occurred. In the story, instead of there being all of the world's many diverse countries, there are only three. Each country operates the same and is controlled by the government. Most of the characters are brainwashed and don't know any better and are happy with the lives they live. However, people like Winston who lived early enough to know the feeling of having real freedom, are frustrated.
When Nixon won the presidency that year he won by a good majority (even thought he cheated). He was considered to be a popular president so when Watergate hit people were left shocked that their president would do something like this.

Before Watergate people felt like they were in the good hands of their leaders but afterwards they felt the exact opposite of this. They felt like that if the guy that was elected to lead the country couldn’t be trust then who could be.
