Old Major Villains In Animal Farm
1. Old Major:
As the father of Animalism, Old Major is an obvious counterpart for Karl Marx, or, in some cases, Vladimir Lenin (Old Major’s skull was publicly shown in a similar way as Lenin’s remains were). Orwell did not mention Napoleon or Snowball at all during the speech Old Major gave on Animalism, showing how out-of-touch they actually were with him. It seems that the pigs took Old Major’s ideas and twisted them to their own belief. This could mirror how Stalin (Napoleon) ignored what Old Major had proposed in his ideas. When Napoleon takes over the farm, Old Major becomes just a distant memory, just like Marx was forgotten once Stalin took power.

Mollie the cart horse
Mollie, the vain horse, is Russia’s middle class, the bourgeois. Mollie craves the attention of human beings, and she loves being pampered. When the revolution starts, she is shown to have a hard time; it is no surprise that she leaves Animal Farm to live with the humans and all the luxuries she missed. Likewise, the bourgeois were not against the revolution, they just were not ready to give up their luxuries for the cause. They, too, fled Russia after a few years of the Russian revolution.
15. Chasing away Jones
The chasing of Farmer Jones is the Bolsheviks disposing of the Czar and his family. In the story, the pigs throw out the farmer when he comes back from a day in a pub, and the workers forget to feed the animals and milk the cows. Farmer Jones’s neglecting of the animals is also the fact that the Czar was out of touch with his people’s needs. This leads to both the farmer and the Czar being evicted from the place they once owned because their constituents were unhappy with the ruling they provided. However, while the farmer was lucky and left with his life, the Czar was sent to Serbia where he was then executed.
