Winston Smith is a Sociopath

A few point that I have learned in the first forty pages of 1984:

• George Orwell was viewing his dystopian world through an Instagram filter. Think about it, everything is dull except the bright red poster of Big Brother. 
• Big Brother's red posters of a black haired mustachioed man makes me think of a portrait of Stalin but if it was painted in a bright red Andy Warhol-istic way.
• Winston Smith is a sociopath. His mother and sister were killed when he was young, and has lead to a misogynistic mindset. I have watched nearly every episode of Criminal Minds, I think that qualifies me to make such a diagnosis. If you don't believe me, let me offer you this quote: 

"Winston succeeded in transferring his hatred from the face on the screen to the dark-haired girl behind him. Vivid, beautiful hallucinations flashed through his mind. He would flog her to death with a rubber truncheon. He would tie her naked to a stake and shoot her full of arrows like Saint Sebastian. He would ravish her and cut her throat at the moment of climax..."

See! This kid is messed up! Dare I say he is even a tad sadistic. It's still early in the book, but so far I'm not a fan of this Winston character. I have decided to remove Christian Bale from this role in my mind. Now I'll imagine Winston as Jackson Rathbone. Before any Twihard freaks out at me, Rathbone... aka Jasper ... might have been cute in the movie, but let's face it he still lit a kid on fire. Ergo, in my mind he fits the part.

A few lines from the book, so far, that have stuck in my mind. Here they are:

"It was not by making yourself heard but by staying sane that you carried on the human heritage".

"The consequences of every act are included in the act itself". 

I'll let those two lines stew in your heads as well, while I go read more.
