Animal farm returns to human control from "summary" of Animal Farm by George Orwell
After the animals had successfully revolted against Mr. Jones and taken control of Manor Farm, renaming it Animal Farm, they had high hopes for a better future. Led by the pigs, the animals worked hard to build a society based on equality and fairness, where all animals were supposed to be treated as equals. However, as time passed, the pigs began to exert their authority and claim special privileges for themselves, going against the principles of Animalism that they had established. Slowly but surely, the pigs started to adopt human-like behaviors, such as walking on two legs, wearing clothes, and even trading with humans. The other animals, who had once been united in their desire for freedom and equality, found themselves increasingly marginalized and oppressed by the very leaders they had trusted to lead them to a better life. As the pigs' greed and thirst for power grew, they eventually reached a point where they could no longer distinguish themselves from the humans they had rebelled against. In a cruel twist of fate, the animals looked through the farmhouse window and saw the pigs sitting at the table, playing cards with the human farmers, and realized that their dream of a truly equal society had been shattered. With the return of the pigs to human control, Animal Farm had come full circle, back to the oppressive and exploitative regime that the animals had fought so hard to overthrow. The once-idealistic vision of a farm where all animals were equal had been corrupted by the pigs' lust for power, leaving the other animals disillusioned and defeated. In the end, the animals could only watch in dismay as the pigs embraced the very humans they had once despised, realizing too late that their revolution had been betrayed and their hard-won freedom lost. The tragic irony of Animal Farm's descent back into human control serves as a stark warning about the dangers of unchecked power and the corrupting influence of greed.
