    I strongly recommend you to read Animal Farm, it’s very easy to understand

        allegories are much better at explaining theories, you guys always say that it was never actually implemented. And I’m not gonna read something from a man who occupied my country in 1921

          Allegories can help explain theories, but they are never sufficient to understand it. Animal Farm is an allegory of a strawman, it barely touches reality. And it’s no wonder you are that embedded in propaganda, it’s normal.

      I recommend you learn from real books about real life like those of Marx and Lenin, not fiction.

      You mean Orwell’s classic anti-capitalist novel wherein a worker’s rebellion against tyrannical bosses is betrayed by capitalist pigs who re-create the farm’s original conditions for their own profit?

      You should read his “Homage to Catalonia”, Orwell fought against capitalists in Spain’s civil war and wrote a book about his experiences there.

      I’ve read it.

      Orwell was socialist my dude.

      Ever read one of his other books Down and Out in Paris and London?

      It helps explain why he is a socialist.
