    I’ve never read Animal Farm or 1984, is it even worth it?

      The prose is shit and emotional manipulation is pretty obvious. If you read 1984 as a description of a capitalist world, however, it makes significantly more sense

        I guess I’ll read it just to say I have, but I won’t be happy about it 😡

            Reactionary, old, prole-hating pervert is intercepted by the state before he can do a terrorism and is rehabilitated with no lasting harm done to his person.
