Show transcript
Orwell believed in the power of language and how it can be used to corrupt and control people.
Arguably, we see this corruption and control through the pigs' manipulation of the commandments.
Potentially, we might consider the commandments as representing religious language.
Therefore, we may think that Orwell is commenting on how religion can corrupt and control people.
