Essay about Animal Farm: The World and the Words

Napoleon’s use of propaganda keeps the animals on his side. Squealer tells the animals that the pigs need milk and apples because they work more than the other animals. Squealer told the animals, “... So it was agreed without further argument that the milk and...apples...should be reserved for the pigs alone,”(Doc C, Chapter 3). Napoleon uses propaganda through Squealer telling the animals to do what he says.

Napoleon’s disastrous reign only supports Orwell’s idea that revolutions always fail, tyrants are only replaced, and a new government is never established.

Napoleon uses Squealer as a propaganda spreader to the other animals of the farm. Squealer tells the animals how wonderful life is on the farm, when in fact they

Napoleon, the leader of all the animals of the Rebellion, can be compared and contrasted with Big Brother, the leader of all the people of 1984. Both Big Brother and Napoleon show the qualities of a cruel ruler. Similar to Big Brother, Napoleon is a secretive plotter who works behind the scenes rather than openly. However, unlike Napoleon, Big Brother periodically appears on the television screen. Napoleon and Big Brother both work continually to weaken their rivals, whether it is by removing Snowball or eliminate Rutherford. Both place importance on complicated ceremonies and parades to prevent their workers from thinking about their schemes. Napoleon’s control over animal farm is not as powerful as Big Brother's

Napoleon uses brutal forces, while Snowball relies solely on the force of his own logic and rhetorical skill to gain his influence. Snowball allows the superiority of the pigs, while Napoleon does not and wants the superiority for himself. Snowball is used as a scapegoat, such as how the media is today, by making a person seem worse than reality. Snowball, in this case, is the animal in crime since he left. He was blamed for all the trouble made. Today, we have our president attacking immigrants saying they are the reason for many of the country's problems. The media that is used makes the case seem more terrific than it actually is. Snowball gives an image of hope that has gone bad. Snowball is blamed for the problems he didn’t cause.

This therefore leaving them docile, numb, and oppressed.

One way Napoleon took control of Animal Farm was by Ideology. By using Ideology to take control, he used the Seven Commandments.

Orwell stated that: "Somehow it seemed as though the farm had grown richer without making the animals themselves any richer- except, of course, for the pigs and the dogs" (p.86). In other words, no one was benefiting from the animal’s labours apart from the pigs and the dogs because the amount of authority the dogs and the pigs, especially Napoleon had, was corrupt. Frighteningly, if Snowball had been

Communism. Communism can only be fathomed through the concept that sacrifices have to be made. In order to implement that, then there must be an equal distribution of power. In Orwell’s depiction, Animal Farm illustrates the concept that through administrative power there must be a leader or representative to reinforce stabilization.
