Just reread 1984 and animal farm for the first time a couple months back. Boy did it resonant more than ever. Not to get political, but I couldn't watch Biden talk about Jan 6th without thinking of the battle of cowshed and the same rhetoric that was being used to rewrite things to emotionally charge people... Ugh. 1984 just made me sad again... The ending is rather hopeless. Softwar is very interesting, but the scientific research format makes it a bit dry and repetitive in places, but that is on purpose. It is on point! Definitely when getting to section 5.5
