Orwell’s use of an allegory to portray communism in Soviet Russia allows the reader to comprehend what happened in a simple way. It develops the themes power, deceit, dreams, foolishness, violence, and blind following by using animals in place of people. The pigs represent the leaders and the other farm animals represent the citizens of Russia at the time and how they dealt with the corrupt communist nation.
The theme of corruption is still relevant today because there is still corrupt governments around the world, for example, the North Korean dictatorship and communist China. The pigs began as equals who represented the people, and turned into cruel leaders and authority with no limit. Even in local governments, school systems, and work places it is necessary to spot corruption and unfairness. The theme of violence is relevant today in light of police brutality. Just like Boxer was set to be killed instead of retired, people today are murdered unfairly.
