All the other male pigs on the farm were porkers. The best known among them was a small fat pig named Squealer, with very round cheeks, twinkling eyes, nimble movements, and a shrill voice. He was a brilliant talker, and when he was arguing some difficult point he had a way of skipping from side to side and whisking his tail which was somehow very persuasive. The others said of Squealer that he could turn black into white. –Animal Farm, George Orwell Which statement best explains the central idea from the passage? Squealer doesn’t know the difference between right and wrong. Squealer uses body language to get his point across. Squealer can make others believe anything, even lies. Squealer’s manner of presentation entertains others.

Answer:

Squealer can make others believe anything, even lies.

Step-by-step explanation:

In his probably most famous work, George Orwell satirically and metaphorically expressed his views on society, socialism, communism, human nature, lust for power etc.

This particular excerpt describes Squealer as a brilliant and persuasive speaker. Although his body language was also mentioned, the emphasis is on his skill with words, as stated above:

"The others said of Squealer that he could turn black into white.", which pretty much sums up how good speaker he was.
