who would have thought that the spooks of 1984 would come from capitalism? big brother was an imperialist all along!

1984 is funny because it depicts fascism to a T even though it was intended to critique Stalin and the USSR.

Perhaps the oldest example of criticizing socialism by describing capitalism.
