If you ever plan on entering politics don't read it. Today's politicians seem to think it's a manual, not a warning.

- jmnicolas 8y agoWhat makes you think it's a warning and not a manual ?
- freedomben 8y agoWhy not both? I think for most of the working class, it's a dystopian novel with a warning. For most of our politicians and the ruling class (and oddly, many of the big tech companies), it's a utopian novel filled with great ideas.
- isostatic 8y agoOrwell certainly meant it as a cautionary tale.
- paraditedc 8y agoVery interesting perspective. Actually I've read The Prince and I got carried away by the ideas in the book. Maybe I shouldn't read 1984 after all? Anyway, I'm just interested in politics, but not planning to enter politics.
