"The perfect dictatorship would have the appearance of democracy"

A quote loosely attributed to Aldous Huxley, but contested here.

"The perfect dictatorship would have the appearance of democracy, a prison without walls in which the prisoners would not dream of escape. A system of slavery where, through consumption and entertainment, slaves would love their servitude."

I interpret this as pro-socialist, but it seems it has roots in anti-communism? Food for thought nonetheless
