    Got reminded of the Chapo bit about how reactionary comedians get sidetracked by their uncontrollable seething rage at their targets, Orwell undermines his own points about betrayal by making his east european proletariat and peasantry(non-pigs) too stupid to learn more than like 5 letters of the alphabet, seemingly either out of racism or him being too bad of a writer to understand what he's actually signalling with his animal metaphors.
