Also heartwarming news, a good 5-10% of comments [from my count, not an actual survey] on Jacob Gellers video about 1984 are “Orwell sucked actually”

Edit: There was one bit that spoke to me. The forward discussed at about 38 minutes into the video, about Orwell being afraid he’ll lose his political anger and turn into another apologist for “things as they are” is something ive felt a lot. Not because any logical conclusion or epiphany, but just because it’s happened to so many others. Even as i discuss the reasons why Abbie Hoffman or Angela Davis and such lose their political fire, i still find myself afraid that I’ll succumb to it too.
