Comparative Analysis Power, while necessary for the progression of society, is very easy to corrupt people with and be abused in the wrong hands. George Orwell wrote 1984 and Animal Farm as a warning of what could happen when power is obtained and left unchecked. Throughout both novels the theme of power causing corruption is evident in how the power is obtained and how it is maintained. The events that unfold to the party and Big Brother in 1984 are very similar to the situations the pigs are…

As I was looking up Animal Rights, I found a sort of history that is provided within the definition and article. It's worth taking a look at. The article was comparing slaves and animals, how they were referred to as ‘property rights' way back when. https://www.britannica.com/topic/animal-rights This is a tricky question because I understand the need of using an animal for food, as I am a hunter, but I do not agree with the large pig/cattle farms that sweep the nation. Personally, I believe that…

I believe the pigs were to blame for the dystopian characteristics on Animal Farm, because the pigs persuaded the animals to believe them using fear and made up statistics, because they used the weaker animals to distract the other animals, and because they used the trust the animals had in them to take advantage of them. Squealer, the propaganda expert in the novel Animal Farm, would do anything to get the other animals to believe that the farm was fine and dandy, Napoleon was always right, and…

Sick, dehydrated, abused and living their lives on metal bars, this is the life for all the animals that come into the pet shop at the Berkshire mall. Ironically, the pet shop is called Your Pet Experts, but people who don’t know how to treat animals properly are not experts. Over the past few years, I have become more aware of the abuse that has been going on in the shop by seeing it myself and hearing it from friends. Instead of being in pens where they move around and interact with people…

Also, Humans torture animals in a horrible way that some humans can't even stand watching it. The way animals are tortured should stop because animal suffer more than expected, like stated in the last paragraph animals feel the same pain as humans. In the article “In the belly of the beast” it says the following, “a tattooed man who seemed to take pleasure in abusing newborn pigs- flinging them around by their legs, boasting of stabbing a sow with a pen and ripping the ear off another”(...).…

We could say that many people love animals, but there are many reasons that people let go of their pets. It could be that they wanted to, or that they doesn’t want, those pets will ended up homeless, or will be put in the animal shelters. Animal shelters are needed in our society, to keep our society healthy, and to make everybody happy including animals. The Pixie Project is a non-profit animal shelter organization that help both animals and the owners to find the perfect match for each other.…

How does Napoleon use fear and propaganda to control the animals on Animal Farm? Napoleon using the nine dogs as a fear is just one of the examples of how fear is used to bring the animals under his rule. There are many other instances in the book when either Napoleon himself or his spokesperson Squealer would use one of these techniques to either persuade the animals or force them to believe in innovative ideas. Now, one by one, I am going to expose the various situations and the many ways…

Live In What would people do without technology? Technology is the focal point of everybody’s lives. It is used everyday for work, to strengthen connections, or pay for something online. Technology has never been relied upon so much. Former Google CEO Eric Schmidt and writer Jared Cohen, in their article “Our Future Selves,” argue that technology will offer the world a greater future with the possible connections and productivity it can generate. Professor Lori Andrews counters Schmidt and…

is Acceptable or Unacceptable Child abuse is a topic people are uncomfortable talking about, but it is a fact of life. There is no denying that thousands of children are abused all over the world each year. In “Punishment or Child Abuse?” Michael Eric Dyson asserts that there is a common phenomenon of child abuse in black Americans, and they don’t think their behaviors are wrong. Dyson attempts to bring readers’ attention to this issue and raise their awareness of child abuse. It is…
