Youre doing revisionist history. Orwell was a socialist. He hated fascism but he hated capitalism too. He was a far left person. A flawed person but nonetheless his POV was that. That includes conservatism in a huge way. Conservatives are the antithesis to the left.

This is what many people on the right say to obfuscate from being something huge figures in history were vehemently against. No, not just power.
