Seeing the utter whiplash on people's faces when I offhandedly make a joke about the time I was held hostage for 9 days and continuing straight past it, is probably my new favourite past time.

Put in the language and form of a fable, it makes this tale immensely readable and accessible. What seems like a comfy tale of the English countryside and a farm and its animals with cute names like 'Bluebell' and 'Clover' quickly devolves from slight inequality (when the pigs keep the milk and apples for themselves, reasoning 'oh, they are the brain workers of the farm') to betrayal and the horror of a totalitarian government, once again replicating what came before the animals rebelled against men.

It's good this tale was told simply and clearly so no fancy word could be used to twist round it, like Squealer did as the propaganda. It's also a small thin book of 100+ pages. Plot felt very quick, true economy of word usage here. Characters are super memorable, each one distinct, and when there isn't a distinct one it's a mass of them. It's essentially post-war non-fiction dressed as fairytale, with no jargon, and it's described almost objectively? So there's no question of bias.

heart broke for boxer. no other words

when the sheep bleated 'four legs good, two legs bad' (the simplification of the motto) I kept dreading that this would one day be used against the poultry as discrimination. Oh nooo. It twisted to 'two legs better', reversing back horrifically to when they were still under men

I thought, Good for Mollie for escaping early when she did, she knew what she wanted and it was to live in the luxury she was used to. Even if that's depicted as a coward.

Squealer is good at what he does, and in turn describes how the media works, chillingly. 'Now when Squealer described the scene so graphically, it seemed to the animals that they did remember it.' I myself had to reread again just to make sure what exactly had happened. The animals didn't have the luxury of a reread.

it hurt to see the pigs keep twisting things around from a loss to a victory, a death to a celebration, a sale to constant enemies' persecution, etc. And of course, the changing of the commandments, the ideals which they had all worked for, to suit only themselves as the exception. The Constant Distraction of Events

i also thought it was good orwell had both insisted on no royalties for translations for countries too poor, and himself paid for Russian editions [APPENDIX II - preface to Ukrainian edition]

Animal Farm by George Orwell

I’m rendered almost speechless by the relevancy of this title in the world we live in today that was written and published 78 years ago. It’s historically relevant and apparently one of the most devastating blows to Stalin’s agenda.

The thing that I fear the most is how it is still applicable in so many ways. It shows the tools that can be used to achieve a totalitarian government. The steps that need to be taken. They almost always form an “other” to be against. What was once the humans who indeed were taking advantage of them, it then became Snowball, then the nearby farmers. Whichever suited their agenda. Whichever kept the animals from turning inward with their suspicion and kept their worries outside of the ruling of the farm. The 7 commandments were constantly altered, but the intelligence of the pigs and the inability for many of the animals to read and write left the interpretation of it’s history entirely up to the pigs instead of the other animals they ruled over. The speeches and persuasive nature of Squealer was convincing propaganda that soothed any fears of the animals while the part of the sheep (this analogy was not lost on me) was to constantly chant whatever nonsense that Napoleon chose at times when protest was most imminent. To drown out whatever dissent was possible and confuse the masses. It’s hard to think over the shouting of short, catchy phrases.

The complete hypocrisy of the pigs to defy all the commandments by the end of the novel was astounding and it took me by surprise that none of the animals showed any dissent, though it’s not hard to imagine why when compared to the  many humans have turned the same blind eye for atrocities committed in their own countries. As an American, some that I can think of in the past decade were the imprisonment and separation of children of immigrants (the camps of children that no American did anything worth noting about, including me), the increase of rage against any and all racial/ethnic groups especially in the era of the Trump administration (starting with his campaigning against Mexican-Americans and how they ruin the country to the eventual physical abuse that happened to older Asian-Americans because of Covid-19), the continual divide in the classes to the point where most Americans only own 7% of the capital of the country combined (don’t quote me on that, this is from memory), and the events leading up to the 2020 protests for Black Lives Matter.

The important thing to take away from this novel is that while one person alone can’t take on the entirety of the system that was inherently built against them, it takes one person to stand up and rally while the support from those that believe in that message is the most integral to change. Groups accomplish change, whether it’s slowly or quickly like the rebellion on the farm. It also is a grim reminder to stick to your own guns and come to your own conclusions. To not base your beliefs only on what you are told and whichever statistics and facts are hand fed to you, but to do your own research from many different sources. To protect your beliefs and ideals even when you’re told otherwise.

Rating: 10/10 - How could it be anything else

The Pandemic

Synopsis: What would have been the animals on the farm if a pandemic had taken over the farm? After Napoleon took control of the farm and Snowball was banished, things were going as usual, until a virus came to the farm and infected one of the most important pigs. As always, Napoleon was saying that Snowball was behind the problems, but as things went to become more difficult, a hard decision was made, and the animal farm wasn't the same from that time on.

Felipe Vianna e Antônio Abucham

Fanfic: After a long day of work on the construction of the windmill, the animals were very tired, something wasn't normal, especially for Squealer. He didn't appear during the whole day. Napoleon noticed Squealer's absence and sent the dogs to find him. About 2 hours later, the dogs returned together with Squealer who was in a very bad mood and appearance, he was sick.

When the other animals saw him they started to try to discover what disease he had, but no one managed to come up with a good conclusion, it seemed to be something new, possibly a virus. 

Napoleon, trying to calm down the other animals , said that Squealer was already recovering. He also said that Snowball was behind it all. The animals were worried not only for Squealer but also for their safety because a new virus taking over the farm could end their lives.

One week passed and the animals didn't have any news about Squealer since they discovered he was sick. The answer for it was given by Clover who was thinking that Squealer might be kidnapped by Snowball. When Clover said that, the animals didn't know if they could stay happy or sad, because they thought they could relax in peace, now that this new disease was over but in parallel, Squealer wasn't with them anymore. 

Right after that moment, Napoleon called all the animals to an urgent meeting. In which we announced that Squealer was sacrificed because he was working as a spy to Snowball, and all the virus stuff, was just a lie that Squealer tried to make to convince other animals. For the first time Napoleon's speech appeared to be right, but before sleep, Muriel the goat started to vomit and felt very awful.

When they woke up, Muriel was lying on the floor and died. They knew something was strange, and that virus was circulating over the farm. Minutes later, more animals started to feel sick. Old Benjamin, the most intelligent of animals, told the animals that he realized Napoleon was just trying to make things appear excellent to them when in reality their lives were not good. Animals agreed with him, and in Honor of Muriel, they called up a rebellion against Napoleon. They knew they were sick and weak, but they wanted to fight for their comrades. On the same day all of them battled against the leader, and in a very easy way defeated him, because all the pigs got this virus before then, so they were weaker than the other animals. 

From now on, Old Benjamin and Boxer called the farm, "Equal Farm", and they wouldn't have a leader, everyone was going to work according to their capacity and share the productions, an animalism should be from the beginning. 

The  first 3 days of the new farm were great. They took off those days to relax, because they were working a lot before, and also because on the previous day, some animals started  to feel down again. As happened to Muriel and Squealer, they also died on that day, the virus wasn't over and started killing people in only 1 day. Desperate, the remaining animals didn't know what to do, and it was just a matter of time before they died as well.

CONFESSION

I have been crazy obsessed with the book named “Animal Farm” for literally a whole month or almost a month. I am not so sure and the more I learn about it the more I learn new things about it settings, characters and allegorical meaning behind it. It is honestly crazy how fictitious it can be, but at the same time, how realistic it feels when you compare it to modern society, class and politics.

As controversial as it sounds, I can’t help but feel like how true it feels. Animal Farm is a bug that can have you think and make you feel emotions that you never thought you would feel towards these animal characters. Obviously, my favorite character is snowball (scratch that…. it’s more like a crush then a like) and my least favorite is obviously Napoleon (that pig, along with Squealer gives me daily headaches whenever I read their quotes.)

Not sure where to start with this, but instead, I decided to draw some pictures of both snowball and Napoleon (as well as my own OC with them. Her name is Mayflower and she is a childhood friend of them both.)
