Evidently, this foreshadows the fact that Napoleon, who was rather smart, will make himself dictator and have complete control of the farm by using authoritarian and totalitarian tactics just as Stalin did. Napoleon was extremely thirsty for power and got what he wanted by using terror as well as propaganda that none of the…

Conformity gives the person a choice to use their voice or be silenced, though both will cause a negative…
