You are not Winston. You are not in the Party. You are a prole. The party doesn't give a shit about what you think, do or say. The only exception is if you pose a meaningful threat to the Party. In which case, the Republican-Democrat Party, the Capitalist Party of the United States of America will threaten you, disappear you, etc, etc, just like they have done to every threat in American history.
I also thought it was pretty good when I read it, but for me it was mostly just because I was so used to seeing dystopian societies in fiction that get brought down by teenagers that it was neat seeing one that was actually competent.
