Animal Farm was about Nazism so they may still allow that. Just make them skip the chapters where it is exactly like socialism and the kids will learn the lesson.



It was about the Russian revolution and the ussr. Most of the main characters correspond to figures in the Soviet revolution. Napoleon is Stalin and Snowball is Leon Trotsky. The alliance between the animals and the humans is meant to mirror Stalin’s non aggression pact with Hitler.
