Context

George Orwell wrote the novel 1984 as an expose of the devious methods that organizations (like governments) use to get people to think a particular way about reality. He was focused on getting out Information that reflected reality on the ground of the Spanish Civil war and the deliberate focus on just those facts that advanced the reality that the publisher wished their audience to be focus on.

Ludwig Wittgenstein focus on Language as a game that was played out where one person tried to infect the ideas of another person by crafting packets of Information in speech.
