Leftists don't hate Kipling. Kipling figures as a locus of interest to leftist literature theorists because of his involvement in India and British Imperialism, and because of his contradictory corpus.

I'm not sure anyone he listed hates Kipling, Kipling isn't against any of those groups. He's both everything and anti-everything those groups believe.

Kipling's biggest critic, and his biggest admirer was George Orwell. HE insisted that Kipling, not Queen Victoria, is the face of British imperialism.

You cant mention Orwell's opinion on Kipling without including the (great) essay he wrote laying out his views on him
