Answer 1

Answer:

The way power corrupts individuals in authority of a group is one of Animal Farm's four key themes. Napoleon delivered you this putrid greed in the form of power corruption. As soon as Old Major dies and everyone is looking for a leader, Napoleon abuses his power. Instead of following Old Major's ideas, Napoleon uses Squealer to influence the animals and gain what he wants. He murders or threatens anybody who questions his authority because he knows how satisfying it is to be in charge. To serve his personal goals, he even breaks the regulations he helped create for the farm. The pigs will do everything to go ahead, no matter who they hurt or how terribly they injure them. We saw an example of power corruption in Animal Farm when "Napoleon stated that labor would also be available on Sunday afternoons. This job was completely optional, but any animal who did not participate would have his rations cut in half." This example demonstrates that Napoleon is unconcerned whether the animals are wounded as a result of working longer hours. They must labor longer than they agreed to in order to receive their food. This is inequitable and not in the animals' best interests.
