Yu Jie : "China has posed a serious threat to Western civilization and order, more dangerous than Nazi Germany and Soviet Russia in the past. Therefore, although Nazi Germany and communist Soviet Russia have been wiped out, Churchill and Orwell's unfailing advice It’s not outdated – “If freedom means anything, it means telling people what they don’t want to hear.”
Winston Churchill, 1874-1965｜George Orwell, 1903-1950
Churchill was born twenty-eight years before Orwell and lived fifteen years longer than him. Churchill, who was born in an aristocratic family, was a shrewd war analyst and excellent orator. Although his political career encountered low points, he has always been the center of attention. Orwell, who came from the middle and lower classes, wrote as a social observer. He was actually unknown for most of his life, and it was not until later in his life that he became the famous "Orwell". The two men's life trajectories are very different, but in the critical overlapping years, they both struggled for the same major issues-fighting totalitarianism, preventing the wave of state murder from continuing to rise, and taking the defense of human freedom as their top priority.

Although Churchill and Orwell were not fully understood by everyone and were criticized by most contemporary people, when they faced critical moments in history, they insisted on seeking the truth of things first and then acting based on their beliefs. In the end, they proved their He was a necessary figure of that era. In Pulitzer Prize winner Thomas. In Thomas E. Ricks's brilliant biography of these two men, their lives serve as testament to the indestructibility of moral convictions and the extraordinary courage required to uphold them.
