I know it is a known Classic but i liked Animal Farm so much i had to share. Before reading i thought that it would be similar to 1984 or Brave new world which it kind of is but its also very very different. Right from the Beginning i was hooked. I really love Orwells Books but this one is my favourite. I did not expect that. So for anyone that did not yet read it, i highly recomend it! :)

    I would have thought finding Hitler unlikeable would be a positive attribute ? Was that a typo ?

    Orwell was a socialist so making lists of leftists seems surprising; are you sure this wasn’t an ideological tankies vs socialists or marxists vs trotskyists ?

      Orwell paraded as a socialist which is why he knew who were true leftists and who weren’t. Dude was a narc of the highest order, and a traitor to the cause any way you look at it.
