It was ironic and satirical that Napoleon’s own power annihilates Animal Farm.

The power behind the whip causes agony to ripple across my back, and a memory flickers in the back of my mind. It is a picture of a better world when we would be free of the cruelty of man. It is just a distant thought as I try and remember if this life is any better than when Jones was here. My memory grows dimmer as Napoleon raises the whip again, and the dogs growl.

I have decided to explore the theme of how ‘Fear is a powerful motivator’. Different leaders and influential people have various ways of using fear to motivate people. Two of my texts: ‘Animal Farm’ by George Orwell, and ‘The Rise of Evil” directed by Christian Duguay, both show how totalitarian leaders used violence to motivate the public. The other texts: ‘Bowling for Columbine’ directed by Michael Moore, and ‘Who’s for the Game’ by Jesse Pope, both show how two different influential people motivated the public without using violence, instead creating fear using words.

We are lucky to have free education, in America, but some people don’t take advantage of this opportunity. It’s incredibly easy to get manipulated if you are less knowledgeable than someone else.

After reading this novel, there is a message that stood out to me which was people will take advantage of you if you do not have an education.
