Explanation:

In the allegorical novella "Animal Farm" by George Orwell, the animals represent the Russian people after the Revolution. The pigs, more specifically, represent the Soviet leaders who deceived the people into believing their society would be a just and equal one. Just like those leaders, after realizing that being in power brought them advantages and comforts, the pigs begin to lie and kill their fellow animals. They spread false information by the means of propaganda, force the other animals to work for the common good without being rewarded for it, and live the very same life they used to criticize, exploring others for their own sake.

Napoleon, one of the pigs, forces Snowball to leave the farm by expulsion. Snowball truly believes in the ideals they fought for. He wanted animals to live freely and equally. Napoleon has Snowball kicked out so that he can corrupt the system more easily. The presence of an honest leader like Snowball would only hinder the bad guys' plans. After kicking him out, Napoleon pretends to be the one behind the ideas of improvement for the farm. He claims he had always wanted the windmill built. In fact, the windmill was Snowball's plan but, after realizing he can take advantage of the animals, Napoleon lies to have them build the mill.
