The Lion and the Unicorn — Orwell on National Identity, Class, and Patriotism
Welcome to Crisis in Perception, where we examine the systems shaping our world.
This episode explores The Lion and the Unicorn by George Orwell as a systems-level analysis of how English national identity shapes loyalty, class perception, and political legitimacy.
By focusing on structural contradictions rather than personalities, the episode shows how patriotism can unify a deeply unequal society — and why that identity persists even when the system is visibly flawed.
