“… Changing rules of the pigs compare…”
The pigs changing the commandments
compare to real life everyday. It compares because some of the animals could represent
as activist as taking matters into their own hands like some famous people from
our history during events. The pigs are like the government for the president
but mainly for themselves or the rest of the animals. The pigs decide to pass
or change laws while the president being (Napoleon) could give some options as
resolutions to them. Politicians would only care of themselves because they
would have control over what laws are being passed for the entire country. For an
example of a law would be of: “the first civil rights
law, equal rights for everyone who lived within the jurisdiction of the United
States.” This would have been located online as a reference using this

Changing those
commandments on Animal Farm so everything is set proper to work right is like having
your own business or company. It is like school regulations and if you don’t
follow them you suffer the consequences. In chapter 7 of Animal Farm, 4 pigs
decide to betray Napoleon and fess up to it. Then they suffer by being attacked
by Napoleon’s guard dogs and end as perished. Napoleon in the meantime is in
charge of Animal Farm, while the rest of the animals are set as the people.
Some of the pigs, including Squealer is his government. Lastly, Napoleon’s
police or bodyguard is the dogs. Most animals in the farm don’t speak up enough
or can’t find the words to speak and because of that the only one who makes
decisions and even decides it a good majority of the time is Napoleon. The
animals don’t have many rights as Napoleon since he decides it all. This isn’t
fair to all the other animals. It makes me think back how women weren’t treated
equally as men. Feminists had to argue and take action. “In 1919, the federal woman suffrage amendment; originally written by
Susan B. Anthony and introduced in Congress in 1878, is passed by the House of
Representatives and the Senate. It is then sent to the states for ratification.”
