this silly little post managed to make the redditors over at the disco elysium sub drop bangers like

‘‘Orwell is cursed to be misunderstood by both left and right cri cri’’

‘‘How dare the Union do [CRIME] to fund their militant activities?? Don’t they know [CRIME] is BAD!??’’

This ain’t even a media literacy issue, this is a literacy skill issue.

    Yeah, you’re right. I didn’t mention those two because I interpreted the students as representing very young, western armchair leftists. Or ultras. Who knows what they’ll find genuine next week

    Or they represent the very common experience of wanting to connect with leftists in your area, you hype yourself up to get a revolution started, then discover the local party is two guys who hang out in an attic and argue over three sentences of theory. This game is too real.
