 I think that while many have interpreted Animal Farm and 1984 as critiques of the Soviet Union, Orwell really meant to praise the Soviet Union and critique the freaking liberals.

 That's what I'm saying. People misinterpret them as critiques of Stalin, but actually Stalin was good. It's the liberals who are bad and the real authoritarians. That's what Orwell was trying to say but people don't see it.
