Throughout the novel, Orwell also portrays that the animals such as the horses and donkeys are the equivalent to regular working citizens who are manipulated to work hard, but to no avail, by the U.S.S.R. One way this is similar in Animal Farm is when Napoleon manipulates his animals to believe that whatever he says is always right through his propaganda spread by Squealer. This is displayed to the reader when Boxer says that if “[N]apoleon says it, it must be right”(Orwell 56). What Orwell is trying to show the readers is that because of the constant manipulation Napoleon has done to the animals, like Boxer, that they now believe whatever Napoleon speaks of must be true without question.
