Detailed explanation-1: -In 1984, the Two Minutes Hate was a period of two minutes several times a day to unite the party members of Oceania against the common enemies of the state, namely, Goldstein. They watch a video with images of the enemy and hurl insults at it.
Detailed explanation-2: -What does Winston realize when he catches O’Brien’s eye after the Two Minutes Hate program? Winston knows that O’Brien shares his negative feelings about the Party. Winston immediately realizes that he and O’Brien are related somehow. Winston and O’Brien merely acknowledge each other as friends.
Detailed explanation-3: -Winston believes that O’Brienis a secret member of the Brotherhood (mostly because they just made eye contact during the two-minute hate, and Winston felt something). One day, Winston receives a note from Julia that simply read “I love you.” This is the beginning of their love affair.
Detailed explanation-4: -How does Winston react to the Two Minute Hate? Winston reacted the same way how the Party members reacted, roaring and acting angry. But inside he was actually horrifed when people were chanting B-B.
