What is Napoleons contextual counterpart in the story animal farm by George Orwell who wrote this novella to belittle and mock the USSR and its Soviet ideals and how it has been devolved into a rulership of Stalin a tyrant who kicked Leon Trotsky (his partner in making commusism come true) out of Soviet russia to overtake and deplete the country of its resources and therefore become the new worlds superpower rivaling Amercia and the late British Empire. The clever implementations of Stalins personality and famous actions being shown across animal farm but mostly in the later parts for Stalin planned at the start to take out Trotsky. Did i mention Trotsky was Snowball? A revolutionist who wanted to industrialise Soviet Russia with machinery and tools to help life become easier. However Joseph Stalin evicted and became the supreme ruler after which caused a power imbalance between Stalin and the rest of the people, Proletariats became brainwashed and manipulated by copious amounts of propaganda while the speeches of Molotov became a direct way on pulling the strings behind the curtains. The contextual versio of Molotov was Squealer. Molotov’s job was dangerous and could result in a civil war or unrest within the population of the farmers and hardworkers. The Bourgeoise however immediately fled the country as they has no loyalty for a dream about all people being equal, they wanted to keep their riches and so diverted themselves to other countries
