1984 is particularly weird since modern, and even contemporary, capitalist states were and are much closer to what is depicted in the book (not surprising considering Orwell never visited any socialist country) than any socialist country was or is, so it legitly can be taken as critique of capitalism and fascism especially if accompanied by the vague “Orwell was a leftist” message. Hell, capitalist propaganda machine goes to very extra lenghts to explain every single time that 1984 is in fact anticommunist book.
Considering we know that it was intended by author to be anticommunist, this makes Orwell the worst writer in history, with his message being (despite wide accompanying explanation), often recieved as opposite to intention.
