Imagine that you are one of the animals listening to Squealer's speech in chapter five when he says, "No one believes more firmly than Comrade Napoleon that all animals are equal. He would only be too happy to let you make your decision for yourselves. But sometimes you might make the wrong decisions, comrades, and then where will you be?" Write a detailed response stating what you think about Squealer's reasoning.
Because Squealer represents propaganda, I believe he is just spreading false lies to quench the rage of the animals. Secretly, he is actually helping Napoleon gain power and become a dictator by saying that Napoleon is worried the animals would make the wrong decisions, so Napoleon should make their decisions for them. Squealer is trying to justify Napoleon's unjust grab for power.
