Orwell himself said that every fascist should be shot.

Actually, he described the method that should be used to burn them in their tanks... but it comes down to the same thing, I guess.

I'm paraphrasing for effect. I'm specifically referencing his statements about why he joined the Spanish Civil War. I'm pretty sure he never said "every fascist should be shot" but it makes for a shocking surprise for a chud who thinks that antifa is "Orwellian" because they're "the real fascists".

Probably not, but he sure as hell thought it - as we all should.
