Is English not your first language? That isn't double think.

If a law is passed requiring drug use to be prosecuted and making it illegal not to, you have criminalized decriminalization.

Just because words or concepts are opposed in isolation doesn't mean they can't appear in a sentence or thought together. That's not how grammar works, and it's not what 1984 is about.

Uh... That's precisely what 1984 was referencing - rules and laws passed in Soviet Russia that twist the meaning of existent words.
