Prince Harry named 'first in line to the throne' as people take Spare to toilet

Oh nooooo!

Than I must admit that there never was a good Animal Farm film/animation. Just read the book. It's short.
But to see this transformed into a typical Hollywood blockbuster, hurts my anti-authoritarian and capitalist feelings. Still I'm curious. 🫣

A quotation from George Orwell

All nationalists have the power of not seeing resemblances between similar sets of facts. A British Tory will defend self-determination in Europe and oppose it in India with no feeling of inconsistency. Actions are held to be good or bad, not on their own merits, but according to who does them, and there is almost no kind of outrage — torture, the use of hostages, forced labour, mass deportations, imprisonment without trial, forgery, assassination, the bombing of civilians — which does not change its moral colour when it is committed by ‘our’ side.

George Orwell (1903-1950) English journalist, essayist, writer [pseud. of Eric Arthur Blair]
Essay (1945-05), “Notes on Nationalism,” Polemic Magazine (1945-10)
