"George Orwell went to Spain to fight on the side of the Communists."
If I remember correctly, Orwell was an anarchist at the time , the joining the communists was the only way he could become involved.
Orwell and his wife adopted a baby, and his wife died not too long after. Orwell later died when the child was about five, but the stepson remembered Orwell with great love and gratitude for doing all the more feminine child-raising chores like changing his diapers and showing him love after the wife died. When this attack on Orwell came out, his stepson wrote an article defending his father as a good kind man.

Thank you for this info. Do you have a link to his step-son’s article?
