"You know what kept Oceania the way it was--Orwell said it
 himself--it was the preservation of the class system. Along with that was 

extreme patriotism and racism."

                       ^^^^^^^

Racism?  I have a hold of a hardbound edition which I seriously doubt is 
abridged in any way.  Could you please point to the pages which make any 
reference to racism as a mechanism for the preservation of the State?      
Perhaps you are mixing Brave New World with 1984, but 1984 never made any 
mention of subjugation of races.
