The people who were on the list were not his friends any more, I think.

But makeing a big fuss about this list of people known for their
political stance is typical for the stalinists, who never forgave Orwell
his "Homage to Catalunya", where he destroyed all the stalinist lies
against the Spanish revolutionaries in the most effective way, and gave
a sober description of the counter-revolutionary role of stalinism in
the Spanish civil war. That is the real cause of the Stalinist hate of
Orwell, which you reflect here, not this list. The list is only a cover.

So thread drift is only a problem for you on selected occasions?
