It is definitely weird. It might be the fact that the average person today is so far removed from the events and their life just keeps going. Why expend energy on rioting when everyday life is fine? We all have a ton of other stuff to do.
On a sidenote, this is why I always preferred Brave New World over 1984. Easier to keep the population in control by keeping them satisfied.
