One of the main things used to make this a good satire is irony. Snowball getting kicked out by Napoleon after he kicks Jones out of the farm. In the story in chapter 4 it tells all the animals, lead by Snowball, fought for their freedom and to make animal farm a better place. the fight was known as the battle of cowshed with the animals running the humans out of the farm. In chapter 5 page 67 it states " At this there was a terrible baying sound outside,m and nine enormous dogs wearing brass-studded collars came bounding into the barn. They dashed straight for Snowball, who only sprang from his place just in time to escape the snapping jaws...... Then he put an extra spurt and, with a few inches to spare, slipped through a hole in the hedge and was seen no more." In the end after all Snowball did, he was run out by the very pig that he always got into distputes with.
Second is Symbolism. Symbolism is used when they put up the flag to remind everyone that they gave there lives to protect the farm and there way of life. Also they have there own national anthem and they sing it on every speical ocation.
Lastly is exageration. exageration is used when the other farmers are talking about how the animals are running the farm themselves. they tell there animals that they turned canibalistic and are constantly fighting with one another.
In the end, George Ornwell used these 3 thing to make animal farm a good book
