Lessons from Animal Farm

Whenever I read something from Gary Gensler or Elizabeth Warren, I'm reminded of George Orwell's "Animal Farm." Specifically, I'm reminded of when Napoleon pulls the coup d'etat over Snowball, ends debates, then begins to rule for the good of the animals. Clearly, they're too dumb to make their own decisions and need his leadership. Remember that from school?

This and 1984. Orwell must be one of the most prophetic authors ever.

Public school pressed me to dish out SparkNotes. Like a list of events. Not about actual comprehension of the text.
It wasn't up for debate.

They pressed you to dish out SparkNotes for George Orwell's "Animal Farm", without having the kids read it?

Hey someone has to be held back until they get it (or use SparkNotes to describe what happened without any contextualization)

It was the middle of the night when I hastily responded, and my sarcasm aside, I had a nasty English teacher when we read this in school.
One of those books I had to read again later to appreciate. I think because that was one of those teachers that just made everything not enjoyable.
