for example, the pigs say “all animals are equal”. therefore no animal should get exploited by the farmer who slaughters them. to which the other animals agree
later the pigs say “well, some animals are more equal than others”. to which the animals agree again, because it makes sense to them.

Recommending the works of a Hitler loving rapist and colonial enforcer is definitely a choice not to mind the fact that his writing is shit. I should like to put it on record that I have never been able to dislike Hitler. — George Orwell

Animal Farm’s chief critique is that workers are stupid and helpless, and doomed to go along with whatever a leader says. It’s deeply anti-human.
