"No one believes more firmly than Comrade Napoleon that all animals are equal. He would be only too happy to let you make your decisions for yourselves. But sometimes you might make the wrong decisions, comrades, and then where should we be?"
Dude, it's a buck

Just the other days I said something like "All animals are created equal, its just that some are more equal than others" in a college class (freshman level) and asked if anyone had read the book Animal Farm. None had.
How redundant.

Quote from host_unreachable :
"At any given moment there is an orthodoxy, a body of ideas of which it is assumed that all right-thinking people will accept without question. It is not exactly forbidden to say this, that or the other, but it is "not done" to say it... Anyone who challenges the prevailing orthodoxy finds himself silenced with surprising effectiveness. A genuinely unfashionable opinion is almost never given a fair hearing, either in the popular press or in the high-brow periodicals."
-George Orwell, 1945, Introduction to Animal Farm
I think it's a bad deal and a bad book! Right now, with the current global success, unfashionable opinions are extremely anti-semitic, even when are true. Unfashionable = BAD! Anyone doesn't believe in Genderlessness/LGBT, anybody disagree with Israel, anybody disagree with feminism, anybody doesn't watch sports, dislike tattoos, anti-military ..etc must go to prison, or at least must go to a special school, for re-education ..

Quote from Dr.Murdoc :
Read this in 9th grade many years ago. I wonder if it is still a book that kids read in school. Think I still have the book somewhere.
I'm pretty sure that this book would be banned in most schools today. Independent thought is not a hallmark of modern education.

Am I able to get this in the Public Domain anywhere?

It's included with Audible? Prime? I canceled my Audible subscription but it's free for me to listen.

Who would ban a book about some talking animals? It's basically the abridged version of Charlotte's Web.

It's a paraphrase of the development of a communist society.

Great book, great deal.

So if we are discussing a 4k tv we can talk about a million specs in every detail and compare them to other TVs but a book about history needs to be limited to up/dn votes. Maybe someone looking to buy it wants to know what the book is about, its specs?

Anyway, many lols.

Thanks, Cliff. You might want to check your notes again, though.
