If I were one of the animal I would be very upset about Squealer's explanation for Napoleon's actions. If all animals are equal-comrades, why are the pigs getting special treatment, while the other animals are starving to death. I think that they (Napoleon&dogs) shouldn't have ran Snowball off the farm, because she was the fairest of them all. She let the animals vote for what they wanted to happen, she didn't let Napoleon take over completely with his cruelness. Letting Napoleon have full power of everything was the worst decision the farm had ever made. I understand the pigs are known for being a.)Smarter than everyone else and b.)more clever than everyone. But saying that he thinks all animals are equal is very untrue because in the end he kills hens, and goats, and cows etc... due to lack of eggs from the hens, the lack of milk from the cow. Squealer is the distraction basically, so Napoleon can pin up different things and do what he wants because he's leader, and nobody has the courage to stand up to him; and those who do get punished.
