"Twelve voices were shouting in anger, and they were all alike. No question, now, what had happened to the faces of the pigs. The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which." - Pg. 139:Last Paragraph
I personally will remember this passage from the entire book of Animal Farm. In this last part, we finally understand what Mr. George Orwell was trying to say. We are all evolved from pigs...
Just Kidding...
No, the last paragraph does not give the entire message; we have to think for ourselves. However, this is what I think.
I think that this last passage is describing the world nowadays. We as humanity are getting more and more corrupt. We may not feel like it, but we are becoming more and more like the pigs. The gap between the rich and the poor is widening. The rich are the pigs, the poor are the other animals. And the world is going corrupt. We cannot trust the media these days, even the newspaper. Especially the newspaper. Even though they are printing out news, they are only telling one side of the story; therefore, creating bias, whether unintentionally or intentionally. There are corrupt governments and corrupt politicians who take bribes from shady corporations just for money. After they receive the cash, they governments and politicians turn a blind eye on the evil caused. Now thats corrupt.
So I think that this passage speaks the truth. If we don't stop thinking about ourselves, we may end up as pigs.
