He proves that a utopia is very unreasonable. One of the examples is that Boxer works the hardest out of all the animals on the farm. Boxer is one of the strongest animals and works three times as hard as any other animal. In the text Orwell stated “Nothing could have been achieved without Boxer, whose strength seemed equal to that of all the rest of the animals put together… To see him toiling up the slope inch by inch, his breath coming fast, the tips of his hoofs clawing at the ground and his great sides matted with sweat, filled everyone with admiration.”(pgs. 74-75) This quotes shows that Boxer works the hardest out of all the animals and in a perfect utopia everybody would work an equal amount. Another example is that Boxer gets over worked and get hurt. Boxer was working on the windmill by himself on his free time and he got hurt from working to hard. On page 121, it said “There lay Boxer, between the shafts of the cart, his neck stretched out unable even to raise his head. His eyes were glazed, his sides matted with sweat. A thin stream of blood had trickled out of his mouth. Clover dropped to her knees at his side. ‘Boxer!’ she cried ‘how are you?’ ‘It is my lung,’ said Boxer in weak voice.” This quote clearly show that Boxer overworked himself until he got himself hurt. Lastly, Boxer gets betrayed by Napoleon; Napoleon sends Boxer to a horse slaughterer so he can have everybody working and so no one would be retired. Napoleon covers it up by saying when Boxer was at the hospital he died and Squealer heard his last motivational words. Orwell stated “ ‘ ‘Alfred Simmonds, Horse Slaughterer and Glue Boiler, Willingdon. Dealer in HIdes and Bone-Meal. Kennels supplied.’ Do you not understand what that means? They are taking Boxer to the knacker’s! … Three days later it was announced that he had died in the hospital at
