The Gullible Class

One of the most dangerous aspects of how Communism begins to set its foundations is how it fools and deceives to get into a position of power. No matter which group was oppressed by the foothold of a Communist regime, the people always seemed to have turned the other cheek and seem to be completely ignorant of the injustices that were happening. Although Napoleon has blatantly defied the Seven Commandments, no one has stepped up to name the injustices the system has committed . The other animals do not know of the abuses Napoleon's rule has done but their naivete has prevented them from pointing out how the whole system has gone awry. The other animals done question but support and through this blind ambition of making their farm great, they fuel Napoleon's thirst for more power and furthering his grip on the farm. In page 126 the loyal but naïve Boxer says “Comrade Napoleon is always right” and Boxer says this constantly. No matter what Napoleon does, Boxer says he is always right, and the same could be said about the animals in general. Napoleon has irrefutably abused his power and he has taken measures to protect his own power at the price of the other animals' welfare. Yet, no animal has said anything, Napoleon's public relations aid, Squealer comes to soothe over any qualms and feeds the other animals a load of lies on how if Napoleon and his inner circle were to come to any discomfort then the whole farm will collapse. These kinds of lies are constantly thrown at the animals and it always works.
