Orwell 's Animal Farm, By George Orwell

The novel ‘Animal Farm’ created by George Orwell heavily expresses the ideals of a prolonged cruel or unjust treatment and the exercise of authority. The exponential ignorance of the farm animals towards the actions and ideas of the pigs (Napoleon, Squealer and Snowball) prove the incentive that it is easier to conform to the ideals/ways of the ‘New England’, than to rebel, as well as through the exposure to propaganda and the distortion of reality. This therefore leaving them docile, numb, and oppressed.

Orwell uses imagery to depict Boxer’s loyalty to Napoleon and his dullness. “His two slogans, ‘I will work harder’ and ‘Napoleon is always right,’ seemed to him a sufficient answer to all his problems” (Orwell 61).

We had been talking about where we would all like to travel to in the future with excitement but that had been until our attention was caught by a younger girl. We had noticed as we walked closer that two older girls had been making fun of her appearance. This greatly bothered us. We viewed bullying as as something that no one should have to tolerate. Immediately, we walked up to the girls. I stood in front of the younger girl pushing her back with my arm to assure them that they should back off or else they would have a major problem. My cousins and I went straight to telling her off on how what they were saying to the younger girl was wrong and how they should use empathy. The girls reacted just as how I expected, frightened. After around 45 seconds of doing so, we walked away with a smirk on our faces and invited the younger girl to join us as we went on shopping. Always stand up for what you believe in. It is better to stand out by doing the right thing than to do nothing and blend with the crowd. In Animal Farm written by George Orwell, the animals in the manor farm were being mistreated.
