In Chapter 8 of George Orwell's "Animal Farm," Squealer engages in propaganda to present a distorted view of the farm's situation to the other animals. He uses various tactics to convince them that their hardships are necessary and that the farm is doing well despite the visible struggles.
One of the key points Squealer makes is about the supposed increase in production and how they should be grateful for the leadership of the pigs, especially Napoleon. Although I can't provide a direct quote, he often reassures the animals that life is better than it was under Mr. Jones, despite their struggles. Squealer frequently manipulates statistics and presents a facade of success to maintain control and justify the pigs' decisions.
For the actual quotes and detailed analysis, I recommend referring to the text directly, as it contains rich examples of Squealer's rhetorical manipulation.
