You know how Nostalgia Critic likes the intended message of The Lion King but doesn’t like how it’s presented because what happens in the film is somewhat contradictory to the message? I can say the exact same thing about Animal Farm, because, not gonna lie, Snowball kind of botches the intended message of the book/movie.
So the intended message of the Animal Farm is “Power corrupts. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.”, shown by how oppressive Farmer Jones and Napoleon are when they’re in absolute control of the farm, but between Farmer Jones’s and Napoleon’s regimes, Snowball was the one with absolute power and the farm was perfectly fine under his short rule. If absolute power inherently corrupts, Snowball should have ended up exactly like Napoleon, but no. Snowball wasn’t corrupt despite his absolute power. So really the message the book/movie accidentally ends up giving is “With absolute power comes absolute responsibility. Napoleon wasn’t bad because he had absolute power, he was bad because he used his power to replace capitalism with state capitalism instead of real socialism like Snowball.”. I’m sorry, but that’s a huge flaw, and a dangerous one at that, because it’s basically saying that absolutism can work but it just didn’t work this time, almost the same as when a tankie says “Last socialist dictatorship failed, but I promise this socialist dictatorship is sure to succeed.” despite all of us knowing it’s going to fail because it’s going to be under a dictatorship.
Does anyone else see this problem with the message or is it just me?

I will be so shocked if Napoleon or Squealer die but if they do I think it would be fitting end if they were killed by the puppies, like how Scar was killed by the hyenas

I can't find my Animal Farm and windmills-as-soldier's-meaningless-fight-against-the-wrong-enemy Supernatural post. :(
It's feeling relevant again, as windmills appeared in SPNWin Mary's childhood flashback.
The needs of the windmill must override everything else, he said.
The windmill now symbolizes the gaslighting, or psychological manipulation, that the pigs have inflicted on the rest of the animals.
Windmills are representative of serving causes at the expense of everything else. It's why they appear in the hotel motifs in Free to Be Me and You as early as season 5. It's one of the reasons why Cas's heavenly-soldier-power, his grace, is hidden by Metatron inside Don Quixote.
The windmill is an esoteric connection to higher power, but in the context of SPN, that higher power is rotten. Rigged, even.
#the soldier's burden of serving wrong cause#of fighting wrong fight#don quixote#animal farm#very much applied to meaningless death#cas#mary winchester#and all soldier-coded characters#grave markers of the hopelessly lost#windmills are a warning#a poughkeesie#in the animal farm world snowball is almost luciferian

While touring on the San Diego duck vehicles, we actually caught a glimpse of the navy training dolphins and sea lions. According to the guide, the sea lions were much better at being food motivated and trustworthy, but the dolphins were a bit more agile and quick, so that’s why they use both. They find and ‘tell’ the military where underwater mines are and such
I’m generally against the military, and I’m kind of against using animals in such dangerous jobs. But regardless of my feelings, it’s happening. And I’ve been wondering for a while how ethically involved are these animals. Like, are they domesticated? Are dolphins really that smart, enough that they can consent to this sort of thing? I know they need lots of mental stimulation, like border collies but even more. And I figure this is the right post to ask.
(Also for the record I am 99% sure the duck vehicle company respected the animals well, and asked us not to feed them at all. It’s been about 2 years since I went so I may not remember everything but they seemed good to me)
I think it's a common misconception that domesticating animals is somewhat like enslaving them. It really is more of a symbiotic relationship. No wild animal would have willingly put up with early humans if they didn't get something out of it. Wolves wouldn't have stayed with us and become dogs if they weren't getting food and safety out of it. Many large herbivores that are now domesticated could and would have easily trampled their early human captors or broken their enclosures open if they didn't have a reason to stay. Sometimes individual animals still do if we don't give them what they need.
The animals that have stayed with us for thousands of years have evolved to cooperate with us better. Dogs have additional facial muscles around their eyes that wolves lack in order to mimic human facial expressions. Sheep grow their wool perpetually while their wild counterparts don't because a bigger fleece means they're more likely to be allowed to breed and be kept around. Domestic dairy cows produce much more milk than wild bovine species and domestic hens lay more eggs. Do you know how energy costly producing eggs or milk is for an animal? It's pretty intense! They wouldn't be able to do that if we hadn't given them the food and safety from predators and the elements to.
And we really need to show these animals respect and gratitude for what they give us by taking excellent care of them. They gave up a lot to be with us, often including the means to take care of themselves in the wild. That's a huge reason why I'm not against using animal products, but I hate factory farming. They are still living, breathing creatures with needs and feelings. They deserve a comfortable life and, when the time comes, a humane death.
#also for the record cows are actually very smart and have senses of humor similar but not the same as goats#I have yet to detect personality from a sheep#I’m a farm worker during college breaks so I come from that perspective#bomb sniffing rats are another one I’m curious about#like it’s great that they’re light enough that they don’t set off mines or can go visiting in building collapses and such#but idk like is the risk an acceptable risk?#I guess it comes back to the partnership and safety of the animal and the human#like the farm’s eldest pet steer (he’s 7!) was a difficult birth due to his large size and he had to be pulled out#and his mother was AI impregnated so there was a snowball’s chance in hell she would have ever#met the bull big enough to father such a bull calf#so arguably that was a risk her (previous we bought her pregnant) owners exposed her to#but frankly wild bovines can also have difficult births and while bovines are NOT gifted pumpkins with people to pre-crack them for her#so I think she thought it was a win-win (she adored her baby) and enjoyed her last few years before her old age made further treatment cruel#and we made sure it was quick & easy you know?#anyways further cow notes: big animals like cows and horses are careful not to step on unsteady surfaces#because if they injure a foot or leg then that’s usually a death sentence#and despite the steers’ adoration for roughing things up with their horns and tussling with wheelbarrows#I’ve never seen one pick up his pumpkin with his horns and fling it?#so when we give the cows pumpkins they’ll never step on it and break it#if they know what it is (babies never know) then they will spend hours rolling it around hopefully with their noses or occasionally their#horns just hoping it spontaneously breaks#so we always have to break it for them <3#the cows would eat the entire thing ofc but the goats usually sneak in and eat the guts and seeds that are attached to the guts#so the cows usually eat the shell. in any case our manure pile usually has a few pumpkins every summer it’s pretty great#usually I pick it up over my head and throw it to the ground to break it#even the small pumpkins (besides the tiny table top fuckers) will break by the third throw#but one year a local produce farm donated such a huge pumpkin#that if I had sliced off the top and cleaned it out#my two Nigerian dwarves who love to sleep cuddled in empty water tubs would have totally climbed into and been snug#it was super heavy so I couldn’t lift it over my head. so I cleaned my boot and stamped a hole in it
