Napoleon And Squealer Jones Quotes Analysis
Napoleon and Squealer, they have driven our farm to despair, our freedom taken away just like that. They would constantly remind you of what Jones had done and remind you he could come back, but ask yourselves this, are Napoleon and Squealer any better? Jones drove us to hunger, barely standing on our own legs. What did Napoleon and Squealer do? Why they did the very same thing, take a look at yourselves, skinny, bones showing, the tiredness affecting your performance. Can’t you see, they have been manipulating you, filling your heads with lies. All the things they have told you I have done is not true, I have not been conspiring against any of you but that is what they told you. I do not blame you for believing them, they are quite convincing

    Ta-Nehisi Coates poses an inquisition about how Whites haven't made the past right. Coates states simply that Whites never truely made it up to the Blacks for slavery.

It's near impossible question to answer. Because how does one apologize for something that is like slavery?…

    This quote illustrates to readers one of the fallacies used in this novella: Guilt by Association. Squealer attempts to persuade the animals on the farm into letting the pigs drink all the milk and fresh apples by using this fallacy. He makes it seem that if the pigs do not eat the milk and apples that Mr. Jones would come back. By associating an undesirable person to this idea, the animals allow the pigs to eat the apples and drink the milk. A recent example of Guilt by Association is the one involving the police force shooting innocent/unarmed people of color. Due to the numerous incidents, many people believe that ALL police officers are guilty because they are associated with these events. However, this is not the whole truth. There are…
