What the author seems to be trying to say here is that there is always somebody that will be unhappy with what a leader has to say. 

In a healthy society, there are always opposing views that are designed to be discussed and debated at length. The eternal problem is that unfortunately, you can't please everybody.

Political correctness is a very controversial subject in that some people feel limited and unable to express views that may cause harm and damage to others. They claim that society holds them back from speaking their mind. It is very difficult to apply one definition to this concept as a whole because it is definitely influenced by your position on the matter.

It seems here that the question is designed to include your own analysis and a bit of your opinion, so be sure to add this as well as factual and generalized information.

Read the excerpt from chapter 10 of Animal Farm.
son4ous [18]

Answer:

The text shows that the animals expected a different outcome than the reality they are facing.

Explanation:

Orwell uses irony in this excerpt by showing how the animals goal at the beginning was to drive Mr. Jones away from the farm and establish there own society, Animalism, but ended in chapter 10 with their original commandments changed to one statement: “ALL ANIMALS ARE EQUAL BUT SOME ANIMALS ARE MORE EQUAL THAN OTHERS. (Four legs good, two legs better.),there is no longer Equality between animals and they are all ruled by their dictator- leader, Napoleon, who (as well as the pigs), begin to act like humans. Here Orwell implies that there is no real difference between the two, which is how he uses irony in this excerpt.
