    Animal Farm Essay Were the working animals the ones to blame for Napoleon's takeover? The working animals are to blame because they were still working for him even after he chased off Snowball and made them work like slaves. Some people might disagree because the animals do not know better, Napoleon was the one who brainwashed them on doing whatever he wants and they believe him because he is smarter. Napoleon makes the animals work like slaves and let’s the pigs have special treatment because they are smarter. Even though they know this is wrong they still work for him.…

    The animals never do stand up to Napoleon though. If they had only stood up for Snowball, perhaps they would not ever have had suffered through Napoleon’s despotic reign. Without Snowball’s influence, any who attempted to speak against Napoleon were violently silenced, or made an example of through public execution. For the rest, it became quickly apparent that to step out of line meant death. Some animals were simply too dumb to understand what Napoleon was doing.…

    One of the many terrible events I have witness was when the hens decide not to follow Napoleon’s order and rebelled. This event was similar to the Kronstadt rebellion of 1921, which was unsuccessful. The rebellion proves Napoleon's inability to listen to his subject. Under his leadership the farm experienced a famine,like the Ukraine famine of 1933. The famine proves Napoleon's inability to care for his people and the well being of the farm.…

    Throughout Animal Farm, due to the naivety of the animals Napoleon is able to easily manipulate the animals change the farm in ways that benefit him. A prime example of this is when Napoleon changes the sixth commandment (No animals shall kill any other animal) to “No animal shall kill any other animal without cause”(Orwell 61). Napoleon manipulates the sixth commandment so he could get away with his killing of animals. He doesn't want the animals questioning him about him breaking the commandments so he changes it to something that he thinks he’s abided. The final form of manipulation that truly showed how Napoleon used his power to side with the humans was at the end where he changes the commandment from ‘All animals are equal’ to “All animals are equal but some animals are more equal than others”(Orwell 90).…

    Do you ever want someone who will treat you fairly and not make up any crazy rules for you to follow, then you should vote for Snowball. He will protect the rights for the animals better than anyone else. I believe Snowball will be the best for animal farm because of all the ideas he can come up with, like his idea for the windmill. Snowball will not take things from the animals, like milk from the cows or eggs from the chickens. You see Napoleon is trying to take over because he thinks he can fix our problems, when really he is the problem.…

    Animal Farm Napoleon used fear to control the animals on the Animal Farm. In chapter 7, it said “the dogs promptly tore [the pig’s] throats out, and in a terrible voice Napoleon demanded whether any other animal had anything to confess.” This quote shows how Napoleon uses fear, because seeing the death of other animals that have rebelled makes the animals not want to rebel against Napoleon. Throughout Animal Farm, Napoleon says “Mr. Jones is coming back.” Napoleon is showing the animals that their life would suck if Napoleon was not the leader, therefore showing fear.…
