@aliceandrow Wayne Brorms, Ph.D. If it's allegory by someone that never witnessed said events then it doesn't mean absolutely anything, does it?

@aliceandrow Ad Infinitum Did you miss the part where the bad guys (stalin) basically became the humans (capitalists)
⛄️ @aliceandrow space system garf Ad Infinitum It’s actually both anti soviet and anti capitalist. Orwell was pretty well known for being wary of all ideology.
🦉Stuart Pace🗽 ⛄️ @aliceandrow space system garf Ad Infinitum That's my take away too. Orwell's problem with communism wasn't the stated aims, like some people think, it was that communism replicated the hierarchical and authoritarian structures that he believed were at the root of the problems with capitalism as well.
