"Animal Farm" by George Orwell: Warnings of Rebellion

Society is corrupt and dishonest throughout all of the ages. Just not today's civilization but in all past civilizations. In George Orwell's book Animal Farm, Orwell presents a warning to humanity about the dangers in rebellion. He compares a rebellion to a circle, in that after the takeover of the enemy is complete, the people, or in this case the animals, become corrupt themselves. Orwell warns the reader that when you rebel you should change, …

…for the better. In Orwell's mind, rebellion only changes the people who rule, not the way things are run. It's all good and fine in the beginning, but eventually people will get power hungry and go back to the old ways of how things were done. As a result, this can be known as the circle of rebellion. No matter what people do to try to change things, it comes back to where it started.
