Read the excerpt from chapter 6 of Animal Farm. "You have heard then, comrades," he said, "that we pigs now sleep in the beds of

the farmhouse? And why not? You did not suppose, surely, that there was ever a ruling against beds? A bed merely means a place to sleep in. A pile of straw in a stall is a bed, properly regarded. The rule was against sheets, which are a human invention. We have removed the sheets from the farmhouse beds, and sleep between blankets. And very comfortable beds they are too! But not more comfortable than we need, I can tell you, comrades, with all the brainwork we have to do nowadays. You would not rob us of our repose, would you, comrades? You would not have us too tired to carry out our duties? Surely none of you wishes to see Jones back?" Which theme is best supported by the verbal irony in this passage? Power creates divisions within society. Naïve citizens enable corrupt governments. Temptation can lead those in power to corruption. Corrupt leaders use propaganda to remain in power.

Answer:

Corrupt leaders use propaganda to remain in power.

Explanation:

George Orwell's "Animal Farm" is an allegorical take on the Soviet nation under Stalin. This novella shows how a group of animals revolted against their human masters and made leaders among themselves only to disintegrate into further chaos.

The given passage from chapter 6 of the text reveals how Squealer tries to persuade the other animals on the farm to denounce sheets, for they represent humans but not the bed itself. And in this proposal, he shows how different propaganda was used or employed, twisted, and emphasized by leaders according to their own advantage.<u> Just like Squealer's notion of having a bed isn't bad but refused to use the sheets, so also corrupt leaders use propagandas as and however they can manipulate to ensure they remain longer in power. </u>
