South Park kicks off Season 27 by putting Trump in bed with Satan. Not a joke. They literally animated Trump naked, mocked his body, and had Satan whisper insults in his ear. This isn’t satire—it’s political warfare dressed up as comedy.

George Orwell – A Warning to Mankind is more than a documentary. It’s a mirror held up to the present, showing how eerily accurate Orwell was about power, control, and the erosion of truth.

Animal Farm is a fable by George Orwell , published in 1945. The story is about the animals on an English farm rising up against the rule of their human owner, who neglects and exploits them. After initial successes and the beginning of prosperity, the pigs increasingly take over and finally establish a tyranny that is worse than the one the animals wanted to shake off. The novel is considered a parable of the history of the Soviet Union , in which the February Revolution supported by the people was ultimately followed by the dictatorial rule of Stalin . In the GDR, the book, like all other works by Orwell, was not allowed to be published and its possession could have criminal consequences.
