Orwell writes:
"the horrible thing about the two minutes hate was not that one was obliged to act a part, but that it was impossible to avoid joining in. within thirty seconds any pretense was always unnecessary. a hideous ecstasy of fear and vindictiveness, a desire to kill, to torture, to smash faces in with a sledge hammer, seemed to flow through the whole group of people like an electric current, turning one even against one's will into a grimacing, screaming lunatic.” (pg. 16)

does this description remind you of anything you have seen on television, or in the movies? what is significant about winston's reaction?
