Prose_1984 & Utopia Based on the Hair Trade

Thugs around the world toppled governments, hair replaced gold, and utopian waves swept across the world.
The new government hopes to achieve communism through the hair everyone has. A barber becomes president. The enthusiastic crowd cheers the arrival of the great era.
An ounce of bread needs three hundred pounds of hair.
“Mom, I’m so hungry.”
“Poor boy, but we have sold the eyebrows.”
People then remembered the benefits of the old government and started a new round of revolution.
—— Tribute to George Orwell’s Nineteen Eighty-Four.

全世界的暴徒推翻了政府，头发取代了金子，乌托邦浪潮席卷全球。
新政府希冀用每个人都有的头发来实现共产主义，理发师成了总统，狂热的人群欢呼着伟大时代的到来。
一盎司面包，三百斤头发。
“妈妈，我好饿。”
“可怜的孩子，可就连眉毛，我们也已经卖完了。”
人们想起了旧政府，于是开始了新一轮的革命。
—— 致敬奥威尔《1984》。
