What does Orwell set up in the early chapters of Animal Farm that the new society will experience problems?

One of the main reasons why the society is experiencing problems is that some animals are taking advantage of the rules of Animalism, the pigs are the main offenders. Napolean, Squealer and Snowball avoid doing manual labour by "organising" and "directing" the other animals. After the other animals collect the windfalls they assumed that the apples would have been shared out equally (Communism). The pigs claim that they do a tremendous amount of brain labour and they were all in agreement that only they should have the windfalls. Squealer gave the animals a long and complicated explanation to why the pigs need the windfalls to preserve their health. By not sharing out the windfalls the pigs have broken the main element of Animalism; everyone is equal. Being equal is one of the rules that the pigs invent for Animalism and have just defined the rules. The three pigs together work as a good team, Napolean is an excellent leader, Squealer has a very good talent of using propaganda and Snowball is efficient at organisation. A high majority of the animals are on a lower level of intelligence, which puts the animals at a disadvantage when intelligence is needed. The pigs are using their form of communism (Animalism) to get domination and power over the other animals. Napolean is appearing as the most dominant out of the pigs, he now has "guards" in the form of dogs which he has trained up. Napolean has done this so that he will have some security from Snowball and he is now a bigger threat than ever.

The language used by the animals has changed a lot since the use of Animalism, this new use of vocabulary is meant to make the animals sound equal. Squealer uses words like " Comrades" and complicated phrases to confuse the animals into a state of belief and comfort. The pigs use of language on the other animals allows them to get away with defying the rules. The pigs two main persuasive devices are propaganda and boosting the animal's moral, this is important to make sure that the animals are merry and reassured. To be able to manipulate and have full power over the other animals the pigs rely on the lack of intelligence from animals like Boxer and Clover and then being able to win them over by use of speech. Like in any society the use of speech is important to win supporters onto your side. Without the pig's talent and ability of speech they would not have as much freedom conferred on Animalism. The song "beasts of England" idealistic and is a flourished form of propaganda, it brings the animals together and makes the animals an uncritical community.
