In George Orwell's Animal Farm, power and control of the farm passes from Mr. Jones to Snowball and from Snowball to Napoleon. Each of them, no matter how good their leadership, was somehow corrupted by power compared to the Russian leaders of the time. The most corrupt, Napoleon, uses different methods to gain more power and luxury. Like Stalin, Napoleon uses a Propaganda Department to make himself look good. The person responsible for Napoleon's good looks and propaganda is Squealer. With a name like Squealer he better be damn good at using his wits to the advantage of Napoleon and the pigs. In the seventh chapter, Squealer answers Boxer's question of whether Snowball fought bravely in the Battle of the Barn by making Snowball seem deceitful. He says, "This was our mistake, comrade. Because now we know - it's all written in secret documents that we found - he was actually trying to lure us to our doom." This quote shows that propaganda was used to make Napoleon look good and his opponents look bad. One of the many reasons why Napoleon and Squealer are able to get away with these false accusations is that the animals are too stupid to remember what happened. Another way Napoleon uses methods to make himself look good is to simply change the rules to favor himself. Clarinet is once again responsible for the tort. All seven commandments in Animal Farm are eventually broken before the commandments are "revised" to prove that the pigs did nothing wrong. In the eighth chapter, the commandment strictly forbidding animals from killing each other was cunningly changed to "No animal shall kill any other animal without cause" after a series of executions of alleged traitors and probable followers of Snowball. Napoleon forced confessions and eliminated these likely traitors with the recently revised rule. The new government increased his popularity, his respect and increased his hunger for power. Napoleon's actions, however, did not go unnoticed. Those who noticed were intimidated by his watchdogs and silenced. In one situation, the piglets protested against Napoleon's leadership. "But suddenly the dogs sitting around Napoleon let out deep, threatening growls, and the pigs fell silent and sat down again.
