Which detail does Orwell include to support the theme that
OleMash [197]

Answer:

The details Orwell includes to support the theme that dictators care only about themselves and not about those they rule is:

"Napoleon ended his speech with a reminder of Boxer's  two favourite maxims, 'I will work harder' and 'Comrade  Napoleon is always right maxims, he said, which every  animal would do well to adopt as his own."

Explanation:

Napoleon and Boxer are characters in the allegorical novella "Animal Farm", by George Orwell. The novella is a criticism to the Soviet regime in Russia. <u>The pig Napoleon functions as a representation of Joseph Stalin. Napoleon does not care about the other animals in the farm. All he wants is for them to work while he lives comfortably.</u> The most hard-working of all is a horse, Boxer, who is already eleven years old. <u>When Boxer can no longer perform, instead of retiring him and supporting him for the rest of his life as he had once promised, Napoleon sells him to a slaughterhouse.</u>

<u>Still, at Boxer's funeral, Napoleon pretends to care about Boxer. The animals are unable to see through this façade, but it is all crystal clear for readers. Orwell even includes the ironic detail of Napoleon telling the animals to adopt Boxer's maxims as their own. Every animal, according to him, should think of Napoleon as incorruptible, as the perfect leader, and every animal should also work harder. Napoleon did not care about Boxer and he does not care for the ones who are still alive. All he wants is for them to keep on working, ignorant of his immoral behavior.</u>
