    I didn’t read animal farms, but 1984 is irrelevant to communism. It’s about totalitarism. The same kind of things happened in Staline USSR, Hitler Germany, and Mussolini Italy. Also Pétain France, Franco Spain, and probably many others.

    Main features are permanent surveillance, even at home, perpetual war, exaltation of patriotism,…

    If that reminds you something, it’s normal.
