  • What did you not enjoy? The content or style it was written? I didn’t get that part.

    To me animal farm is still among the absolutely best books I have ever set my eyes on. Not for the reason it was written: communism, power. No, the very picture that it paints using animals: they are used and then discarded.

    Looking at it at face value, this is happening in both communism and capitalism. It is a feature of how we organize our societies.

    For me the book has never been a criticism of communism. But an eye opener how we use and abuse the world around us for our own benefit, no matter in which ideology we fall.
