Reply to comment by masque in Huxley VS Orwell by kin

Came here to say the same thing - or something similar - about how i feel that the comic strip is, as you say, missing the point in its right vs wrong approach.

It's been quite some time for me since i've read either of the two and i've long since started to mix up the plots in my head, but something that always annoys me when the two are compared is that you rarely see mentions of Zamyatins We, which is basically the same fucking book and was written/published 10 years before Brave New World.

While Orwell at least admitted to having read We, Huxley straight up denied it, even though it's pretty obvious that both authors were heavily 'inspired' by Zamyatins work.
