I think HUxley actually looked forward to the drugged society. He hung out with Timothy Leary and spoke of it as if it was a good thing.
Orwell's total surveillance state is also very real though, as is the treatment of history and basic knowledge.
huxley and leary and that entire scene were assets of the machine
huxley was a connected member of elite society
brave new world is a world he knew was coming
