The rebellion wasn’t really led by the pigs; it occurred when the animals got mad after a long day without food, the pigs unequally became leaders without actually taking a huge part in it. After Mr. Jones is kicked out and the animals’ hope of an equal society rose, they started working hard while the pigs didn’t do any work under the excuse of the need of supervision.
Another example of the inequality of the pigs is after the apple harvest where they took it for themselves claiming that they need fuel while the other animals are the ones who need it as they work harder.
During the successful defensive fight against Mr. Jones, all the animals fight equally, Snowball and boxer did an excellent job, except napoleon who didn’t turn up for the fight.
Napoleon is becoming increasingly corrupt and unjust. After the effective speech by snowball which made snowball more popular and was going to divert the votes to him, Napoleon “uttered a high-pitched whimper” and the dogs chased snowball of the farm, which confirmed the untrustworthiness of napoleon. And subsequently the inequality began to increase at a more severe rate.
The animals gradually become like slaves doing napoleon’s plans and doing whatever he likes, moreover they are forced to work on Sundays but Napoleon rests like he does all over the week.
Yet he starts trading and starts progressively breaking the commandments.
What is more, he horrifies the hens after their refusal of giving the pigs their eggs for money by cutting the food supply on them and starving them until 9 of them died, so that they agree on giving the eggs.
And he executes several animals after an attempted rebellion breaking another commandment.
Napoleon moves to the farm house becoming a dictatorial president with body guards.
After another defensive battle , boxer is badly hurt and he is sold to the glue maker for money,
Snowball was fairly equal and he resembled old major’s vision of the new animal life. He tried to educate the animals to make them equal to the pigs in terms of literacy.
He also wants to build windmill to bring in electricity. He principally aims to make the life in animal farm much better and comfortable for all the animals without exceptions.
