It highlights the key point again and again..whatever be the reason for revolutions, whoever participates in the revolutions and whichever party wins, ultimately the people will always be ruled by the filthy pigs. One can relate it to any movement in any country..be it the current state of free market movement, rise of Socialist movements...the heart of all these movements was in right places..but ultimately the pigs enjoyed the spoils and other suffered. Its not just a children's book . It has very deep philosophy for anyone who cares to think and question the history.
