Rush Limbaugh once said, “Capitalism is always evaluated against dreams. Utopia is a dream. It doesn’t exist.” The figure of utopia we can find in the book “Animal Farm” by George Orwell. Animal Farm is a parody fable where animals of an English farm exasperated of the miserable life, ill-treatment and humiliations under the lash of the brutal master, they decided to rebel and fight for a utopic society of equals.

It’s morally easy to believe Squealer’s lies, so they have a clear conscience. Orwell amusingly describes the shameless, the bald-faced of Squealer when he goes into details of Boxer’s death-bed, how Napoleon takes care of everything without the slightest hesitation. Orwell uses amazing words like “admirable …show more content…
The alcohol was in one of the seven commandments of the Animalism,”No animal shall drink alcohol.” (2.22). After a short time, the pigs, of course, start to ignore this commandment and they alter the fifth commandment for their benefit in “No animal shall drink alcohol to excess.”(8.40). The consumption of the alcohol is an alternative approach that the pigs used so they can distance themselves from the working animals, and the booze is another luxury meant only for the elite class of the pigs.
