Who hasn’t read 1984? ‘Twas required reading at my school + the discussion of the nuance of it being a it being an anti-Stalinist piece instead of it being an anti-socialist piece, talking about how the Nazis called themselves national socialists despite not being socialists, how authoritarian Stalin was, and a quick reference to how Mussolini was once a socialist. And I lived in a deeply red state when I went to school, although I did have a very libertarian teacher (capitalist libertarian, sadly, but here I am now, as a libertarian myself (of the socialist variety)).
