I would not discount a good cop huxley vs bad cop orwell, when regimes headed for the second one get overturned people want the first. I am in the street protesting the mismanagement of Covid emergency but I know people mostly want some free money and work as little as possible. This is why the lefty seventies ended in the little capitalist eighties.
