  1. 7:21 I perhaps the most important phrase in this entire article. Orwell is admitting that Fascism is a form of Socialism without directly saying it.

  2. Everyone is a fascist, if you do not agree with them. 🤐

  3. Wealth is irrelevant, when you are the State. Best example, HItler's Will did not include the massive amount of wealth Socialist accuse him of accumulating, ie they claim he was a billionaire. But his Will which was made shortly before he shot himself did not include giving any large sums of cash to anyone in his family or friends. Why? Because all that wealth they often claim he accumilated ie He is a Capitalist, wasn't his wealth, but the wealth of the Party, and in extension, the State. Even his mountain top retreat was paid for by Party money, without him knowing, which was ironic because he hated heights, so if he chose to build himself a mansion he likely wouldn't of chosen a mountain top. Issue is when you're the State, all the State wealth is by defacto yours, even if you do not view it as yours. Hitler didn't view all that wealth has his, hence why he didn't include it in his Will, as it was the Party's. He literally specified it in his Will as well, outside of a few personal things, material items, everything else he had went back to the Party literally stating that in his Will. He never viewed it as his.
