He was extremely socialist and crapped all over conservatism.

Questionmarktarius posted... Holy shit that guy explains everythingOnly if you are conservative. Otherwise the fact that he doesn't believe that racism is a thing, believes in trickle-down economics, etc. are a real turn off in terms of an explanation on anything. Not sure what bringing up Orwell's real name was, though. Unless you are talking about me making the distinction between socialism and totalitarianism. Because that kind of comes as a bit obvious for anyone that has actually made any attempt to digest Orwell. >.> --- "A shouted order to do something of dubious morality with an unpredictable outcome?
