I've recently been seeing arguments that the books were not predictive or warnings but actually documentation as to what the authors knew was coming based on their associations with elites. Both authors were quite connected.
Huxley was. Orwell was brainwashed as a youth. He actually helped the commies in Spain try to take over and mass murder priests and the clergy. Then he turned against Communism. Gandhi used to write him letters trying to tell him it's the Jews, but Orwell never showed any evidence he realised that it was in fact the jews. He just knew that with technology came total power and assumed that communist was a natural expression of humanity of control when of course it isn't. Only a foreigner would hate his host population with that much fervour.. control the people sure, but some empathy will always creep in if it's a white dictator ruling his own people.
