[Petunija1]
eden od najprominentnejših intelektualcev našega časa, ki ima še posebno mesto v mojem srcu in ga na vse pretege zagovarjam, pravi : "Socialists don't care about poor people, they just hate the rich", vse ostalo bom štela kot zavestno manipulacijo.

Ch. 11
The truth is that, to many people calling themselves Socialists, revolution does not mean a movement of the masses with which they hope to associate themselves; it means a set of reforms which 'we', the clever ones, are going to impose upon 'them', the Lower Orders. On the other hand, it would be a mistake to regard the book-trained Socialist as a bloodless creature entirely incapable of emotion. Though seldom giving much evidence of affection for the exploited, he is perfectly capable of displaying hatred—a sort of queer, theoretical, in vacuo hatred—against the exploiters.
The last sentence, compressed and simplified, could be the source of this statement: "Orwell was right: Socialists don't care about the poor, they just hate the rich."
