Talk:Old Major
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
" and there is no way to escape the evil grasp of capitalism"?
This does not seem very NPOV to me. I think it is better replaced with " and there is no way to realistically escape the eventual domination of corruption and self-interest over ideals", the dampener in any real-world implementation of an ideological theory, and the real villain in Animal Farm. --Sohan213.42.2.21 07:13, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
- I changed it to be more specific and less harsh. Orwell did have hope, he didn't believe the failure of society was inevitable. He just wanted to be more realistic about it.--Catquas 05:22, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
"Evil grasp of capitalism"? Poppycock. There is nothing more evil than a communist! (though I wouldn't say that in the article). --Jupiter Optimus Maximus (talk) 09:59, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
