Animal Farm Propaganda Examples

Name-Calling

When Squealer/Napoleon calls Snowball a 'traitor', and 'criminal'

Glittering Generalities

Minimus's song for Napoleon/The positives on the farm are all credited to Napoleon

Euphenism

Squealer calls it a 'readjustment' of food instead of a 'reduction

Transfer

Squealer tells the animals to adopt Boxer's mottos after he died

Card Stacking

Squealer lies to the animals about how much food the farm has (when in reality the farm has very little food)

Testimonial

After Napoleon's purges, Boxer tells all the animals to work harder

Plain Folks

The pigs working alongside the other animals/'Comrade'

Bandwagon

The bleating of 'Two legs good four legs bad' by the sheep

Fear

'Surely none of you wishes to see Jones back?'

Logical Fallacies

Snowball is bad. Bad things are happening on the farm. Snowball must be doing the bad things.
