The difference does not impact the story very much, but when he got shot in farm after the speech, he died because of the animal’s excitement about the rebellion and in the novel he passed away peaceful days after the speech he had given to the animals. Mr. Jones heard multitudinous of noise in the farm and when he fired his

    Here's a question what is something that you would risk your life for to prevent it from getting taken away? To stand up to the ruling powers in society to protect a belief you hold dear. For many people it would be a loved one, a prized possession, or an infraction on your unalienable rights as specified by our Founding Fathers . For the animals in Animal Farm it was the idea of living free of human rule that made them fight to the Death to capture and protect their new freedom. For Guy Montag in Fahrenheit 451 it was the pursuit of knowledge that made him give everything he held dear.…

O’Brien pretends to be a member of a secret resistance society, the Brotherhood, and easily fools Winston and Julia into trusting him, ultimately sealing their doom. Napoleon is less subtle, but all of rights…
