They aren't and I'm not an anarchist. Orwell literally said that 1984 was more about Britain than the USSR. He worried that all class societies (including the USSR) were headed down a totalitarian path, and that a more democratic and less authoritarian socialism was the only way to avoid this. Animal Farm was a satirical allegory of the Russian Revolution, the ultimate message of which wasn't that socialism was bad, but that it had been betrayed by Stalin. This is pretty obvious since the pigs aren't portrayed as being any worse than the humans, they're literally exactly the same, ie the USSR was just capitalism under another name. Offensively simple Trotskyist bullshit totally lacking nuance for sure, but not anti-communist.
He was a snitch sure, but don't misrepresent what he actually did. He made a list of suspected Stalinists that he gave to the BBC so they wouldn't hire them. That's it. It didn't result in anybody getting killed or even arrested. Still snitching and still reprehensible, but don't blow it out of proportion. The only way anybody could unironically think Orwell hated communism is if they think that the Soviet Union under Stalin was literally a perfect incarnation of socialism that was above criticism.

I can only really see issues from a late-capitalist/1st world perspective
The idea that most people seriously can only picture the end of the world rather than the end of capitalism is pernicious.
The average person in the developed world can't really picture a world that operates on a socialist paradigm past a succ dem level.
Also, the current prognosis for earth's climate seems very grim that even establishing socialism now might not be enough of a concerted effort to help. At the very most it would only limit the damage.
People would also need to accept that extravagant lives of would be outlawed forever or until at least automated gay luxury space communism memes are established (which may take at least 10+ generations). The ideology of "building your own empire" is entrenched deeply, at least in burgerstan.

That's among the most creative, but is it emotionally effective?
