Question

Read the passage from Animal Farm.

How does the use of scapegoating support the theme in
this passage?
Acry of lamentation went up. Straw was laid down
outside the doors of the farmhouse, and the animals
walked on tiptoe. With tears in their eyes they asked one
another what they should do if their Leader were taken
away from them. A rumour went round that Snowball had
after all contrived to introduce poison into Napoleon's
food. At eleven o'clock Squealer came out to make
another announcement. As his last act upon earth,
Comrade Napoleon had pronounced a solemn decree:
the drinking of alcohol was to be punished by death.
O Even dictators will be mourned by those they
oppressed for years.
O It is common for dictators to fear attacks by enemies
both real and invented.
O Dictators will blame an invisible foe for problems in
order to explain events.
O Most problems are caused by those who have been
cast away for causing harm.
