1. In 2017, the rapper Eminem criticized President Donald Trump in a freestyle rap that aired

during the BET Hip Hop Awards. He also rapped about Ivanka Trump, Donald Trump's

daughter, in one of his songs in his album Revival. The Secret Service ended up questioning the

rapper about his lyrics. In what ways is this incident "Orwellian?"

    Orwell's dystopias focused on excessive government control. So now, when something displays the government attempting to censor free speech, it's dubbed "orwellian". So, when Eminem was rapping about the government and got confronted by the secret service (presumably to try to censor him) it could be considered orwellian
