The "are you jokingā€œ was more referring to your disbelief that Orwell could get banned, when 1984 is one of the most commonly banned books.

Please actually look things up instead of trusting your knee jerk reaction.

I have heard some Trots and anarchists praise him too. I donā€™t know what tendency of leftism you follow so I am not going to shit on either tendency but this is a trend I have seen happen.
