Inequality between the animals arose through the leadership of Napoleon, who is a pig as well, with Squealer, his speaker and is a pig. Piglets were given special treatment because they were thought…

Joseph Stalin , took advantage, siding with Lenin to gain the favor.” ( “Leon Trotsky Biography”, n.d) . Inside the novel it states “ They dashed straight for Snowball, who only sprang from his place just in time to escape their snapping jaws. In a moment he was out of the door and they were after him.” (Orwell,1949,…

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.

Don't you hate it when people blame you for things you didn't do? Well, I do for sure, and that's what happened to the pig, Snowball in George Orwell’s Animal farm. Snowball, who was a pig, was made a scapegoat for Napoleon and Squealer. The things that Snowball was blamed for are important, but not as important as how he was blamed for them.
