I think the animals were tricked into believing that they were in better conditions under Napoleon than under Mr. Jones. At first they were in better condition, but later on they were in even worse condition than before. However, the animals were very far into their brainwashing at this point so they didn't notice or question the stuff around them. Mr. Jones was such a vague memory at this point as well so they didn't even remember what the old life was like. Mr. Jones was at least more dependable in their lives than Napoleon ever was. Napoleon was full of inconsistency in not only rations but also the way he governed the lower class. Napoleon also could be considered even more cruel to the animals than Mr. Jones ever was. 4.Napoleon is against building the windmill because it represents a possible threat to his power to govern, and it also a part of Snowball; which Napoleon despises. This is shown by urinating on the plans earlier on the book. However, Napoleon is a sly little fellow, and realizes that he can take the plans for himself and take credit for them; giving him a good start on his journey to power. This is about after he has the dogs nearly kill the snowball, he realizes one of his first actions is to make himself look good and make Snowball look like an opposer to the good of the farm. He then steals the plans and says that Snowball was trying to steal the plans from him the entire time.
