My latest attempt at reading Animal has left me convinced more than ever before that George Orwell is a true genius of all times. The falsehood of today's revolutions was envisions in this story long before our time
It's more than just an allegory, it's so close to reality that the only difference is how many limbs are touching the ground. We are in a cage we think is unescapable, we think if we walk far enough away we will end up back where we started, mind control at it's best.
This book is very much relevant in our days in Africa as we witness and see dictators having a field day with their Governments and people they tend to govern
I keep seeing people saying how relevant it is today with politics and whatnot, I am from Australia and am still a student, would love some explanation on the parallels from this book to today
Excuse me but you make Australia look like it is located in another planet. The parallels are in the alegory that is used on the book and in the movie if you dont have time to read it and what's more important it is a reality that is so relevant even in nowdays in many cultures throughout the world no matter what you see in the facade. The alegory of this book can be found even in the society nowdays, how superficial everything looks and how through claiming justice and equality for all ( and never was that more of a lie than in these days) , everything is just a scam.
How workers of the oppressors become oppressors themselves. They are even worse than the people who oppressed them.Sad tale of how revolution can go horrible wrong. Power corrupts.
A cautionary tale indeed. This book should be taught in school, its a cautionary tale as to what's happening right now. 1984 or animal farm, Orwell could see the future, it was considered bleak and unimagional when he wrote it. Why are we accepting living through it now?
Orwell had it figured out in ‘54, meanwhile we the farm animals have been getting slaughtered for profits; let it be war, epidemics, or overdoses. They trade us for whiskey and cigars everyday of the week.
Just finished reading this book. What a masterpiece!
Same man, it makes me think of today’s times in the US
Meh
I just read it for the first time.... and I couldn't have done it at a more appropriate time either.
No matter when you read it, it will be relevant
@@danielforti2250 I Agree!
Read 1984
Same here, I wonder if this book would be banned in my lovely tiny Island one day. read it when I still be able to.
I hope politicians know "Animal farm" and "1984" aren't how-to manuals.
My wife got me this book for my birthday a few weeks ago. I finished it this morning and am blown away by it’s relevance.
10/10
It only keeps getting more relevant the more time passes. Ghost of Marx not going away anytime soon.

I studied this book in school back in 1967. Now I see it on UA-cam to my surprise
I read this years and years ago in high school. I haven’t forgotten it. That really says something
This is the best explaination I can find on UA-cam. Thank you very much.
When we have too much power, we tend to use too much of it. This book encapsulates that better than any other.
Not all heroes wear capes
Benjamin knew what’s up.
The summary is the best I've heard from anyone. Amazing job. Thank you for the video
What an awesome book. So many lessons presumed in a short and simple way
I love that book. I read it 25 years ago, but I see parallels to real life and politics all the time!
it's important to understand this, so we could recognize it if it happens again.
It’s happening again
Thank you so much sir for giving link related "Animal Farm" In description. ☺
this really helped with mt grade will be recommending to my mates
this guy is tremendously enthusiastic

Excellent. Orwell was a prophet!
I just read the book. I could not put it down from the time I started it. What a masterpiece!

Great breakdown makes me want to read the book even more 🧗🏾
I hope so. It is the best book I've ever read. Given to me by my daughter.

I think this books message can be interpreted in a few different ways. I think you can make it fit whatever narrative you want it too.

This completely matches the history of the USSR.
Great video my guy
This couldn’t be more relevant today.

I use the example of the wind mill when explaining what gaslighting is.
Thank you for you great explanation, now I know what is the story all about👍🙏🏻
please do the scarlet pimpernel its kindof hard to understand
I had no idea about this book thank you
Great summary video!
I love you for this video
Thank you so so much!!
It fits French Revolution too
Altough this book is great, it's unfair that this book does not have a happy ending
Well all too often "that's life" ... and 1984 is even more grim ... be warned!
That is the whole point!!!
It wouldn’t be realistic if it had a happy ending, now would it?
That's his style of writing
Pls make a summary of the alchemist
But what of the very end did the humans and pigs destroy each other as the animals returned to the window to hear arguing 🤔
Thanks so much!
so gooood
thanks for helping with my essay😺
Just read this book , January 2021
Power corrupts
This kinda reminds me of outer banks with the pouges and kooks but I didn’t read animal farm so I wouldn’t know 😭
R. I. P. Boxer
Thank u 💞
Orwell had it figured out in ‘54, meanwhile we the farm animals have been getting slaughtered for profits; let it be war, epidemics, or overdoses. They trade us for whiskey and cigars everyday of the week.
it applies to all the countries,not just russia
most clear definition of gaslighting in the entire book
there was a dark and depressing animated film of this way back in 1954
Starting to think we're actually living it
An amazing book...
The novel is interesting
Man read this last year only if i had decided to look on yt dam
Thank you sir
