Napoleon is a large, rather fierce-looking Berkshire boar, not much of a talker, but with a reputation for getting his way. Acquaintances describe him as being treacherous and cunning. He grew up, within a very dysfunctional, abusive, and poor family. Due to having smallpox when he was younger, Napoleon was forever scarred and had a disfigured arm. Because of the feelings that life treated him unfairly, he came up with a reckless and amplified desire for power. Napoleon's mother sow had four piglets, three of which died and Napoleon's mother believed that her son's health was in jeopardy. Napoleon always felt inferior to educated intellectuals, and in particular distrusted them.
We get indication of Napoleon's antisocial nature long before it bursts into full force. He begins by unleashing the dogs on Snowball. Next he crushes the hen rebellion by suspending their food rations, causing the demise of a considerable number of hens. Napoleon exterminates anyone that had the power to contradict him. Whenever there was a road block in his radical road to success, Napoleon destroyed it, not minding if it was a friend or foe….
Sheik Urbooti Rashid, Ph.D. mentions that the main characteristic of a sociopath is a disregard for the rights of others. Also, sociopaths find it hard to sustain relationships and show a lack of regret in their actions. Napoleon has little apparent empathy for the feelings and desires of others, though he is capable of exhibiting a great deal of superficial charm in order to manipulate other animals into getting what he wants. Napoleon is suffering from a number of psychiatric symptoms that fit the diagnosis of Antisocial Personality Disorder (violent tendencies, grandiose sense of self-worth, criminal versatility, reckless disregard for the safety of self or others, irresponsibility, deceitfulness/ manipulativeness)…
As expected, Napoleon refused our help and continued with his career as a ruthless dictator…
