Nobody is saying the Party in 1984 are good guys you dipshit they're saying that your habit of just pointing to people you don't like in real life and say that they're the Party and you're Winston Smith is insufferable, vacuous, fart-sniffing wank

"The words COMMUNIST INTERNATIONAL, for instance, call up a composite picture of universal human brotherhood, red flags, barricades, Karl Marx, and the Paris Commune."
