Answer:

Metaphor

Explanation:

This sentence is comparing the public to pigs without using words like "as" or "like", which would make it a simile, most likely. In this case, since there's no such use of the mentioned words, this fits into the definition of a metaphor:

<em>"a figure of speech in which a word or phrase is applied to an object or action to which it is not literally applicable."</em>

Read the sentence below:
adell [148]

Simile and mythological. The reason why is because a simile has like or as (acting "like" Hercules) and it talks about something that is a myth (Hercules.) It is not a metaphor since it has "like," it does have alliteration since it does have a repeated letter, it is not a hyperbole since it does not talk about anything so dramatic (instead, it was a simile,) it is not a literal language since it has simile and mythological.

Hope this helped!
