“Surely, comrades,” cried Squealer almost pleadingly, skipping from side to side and whisking his tail, ‘surely there is no one among you who wants to see Jones come back?” (Orwell 15) This quote indicates the first signs of manipulation that became evident since the revolution. The pigs, Snowball and Napoleon to be specific, had begun to develop human characteristics as the story went on, which could be considered ironic, considering the fact that they had just overthrown the humans, for they were abusive towards them. As the novel went on, it is stated at the end that the animals had “looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which.” (Orwell 54)

Power corrupts sometimes. It corrupts sometimes because in the book man is what corrupts because in chapter one old major said ," Man is the only creature that consumes without producing." in other words it is saying the man (people) take but at the same time they are not thank full for what they take because the animal

Two individuals may seem similar in appearance and outward self but it’s the inner character and diverse qualities of a person that distinguishes between two people. Many have the notion to think that since two people have the same outward identity then both will get along and be the best of friends, however, this is where the dilemma arises. George Orwell, an author of Animal Farm writes a tale about two pigs by the name of Snowball and Napoleon and how their bond destroys through disagreements and jealously towards each other which later on builds an eruption on the farm. Animal Farm is an allegory of the Russian Revolution that occurred between 1905 and lasted up to 1917 due to the controversies that occurred between the Bolsheviks

George Orwell’s theme in 1984 is that an omnipotent and all-seeing government is dangerous and will demean individuality as well as free will.

George Orwell focuses his belief of the “[disbelief] in the existence of the objective truth because all the facts have to fit in with the words and prophecies of some infallible fuhrer”. He envisions the decay of future society and implements his ideas through his creation of “Nineteen Eighty-Four”. Indications of a psychological fear are examined initially through the progression and change of the human mind, which is built upon the oppression of the Party. Through the construction of a world with no freedom and individuality, the human mind adapts the change of truth and pay utter submission from the Party, to escape the presence of their ultimate weakness. With those who are rebellious of the rules of the Party gradually brings out the ugly nature of humanity. Through the fragility of the human mind, it reinforces Orwell’s idea of a corrupted society, as there no longer remains a variety of human emotions for the next generation to pass onwards. Thus conclusively portraying the defeat of human mind unable to withstand the physical and mental tortures from the Party.

The “education”- better known as indoctrination- of the characters involved in George Orwell’s Animal Farm and the experiment described in “The Third Wave” [author?] are distinctly similar, through their use of chants to invoke discipleship. Orwell achieves this in Animal Farm through the pigs- leaders of the farm- who create a maxim that encompasses the entirety of the farm’s ideology, Animalism. The maxim is taught to all animals who are unable to remember the Seven Commandments of Animalism; instead, they trumpet, “[f]our legs good, two legs bad” (50). Through the repetition of the maxim, the animals are brainwashed until it is seared into their subconscious. Such reinforcement causes all opposing thoughts to vanish, as one comes under the
