Haven't you read Orwell's introduction? He both criticized contemporary lefitsts for not being critical of Stalin's Soviet Union, and he also obviously criticized capitalist societies (the farmer and his friends who try to intervene in the revolution). Orwell was a moderate socialist who wanted to point out the hypocrisies of the revolution as applied by dictators such as Stalin, while still proving that the initial revolution was justified (marxism).

This. It's been propagandized in American high schools as a "Socialism is bad mmkay" tract, but the obvious analogy is to Snowball as representing the Trotskyist faction unfairly maligned and driven out by Napoleon/Stalin's little cult of personality

Orwell was part of the Fabian Society, named after General Fabian of Rome who won by not attacking directly. It was mostly Communistic Jews. Orwell left after being dissolutioned and wrote 1984 based on what he learned there.

Concerning Animal Farm:
The animals represent different people's and Jews are the pigs. You see how he did an insult there since they see pigs as unholy filthy animals.

Because capitalists needed propaganda against the revolution that could kick them out of power.
>>
Because Stalin fucked Spain over in the Spanish Civil War. Orwell fought on the Republican side in a POUM militia, and not the International Brigades because he had disagreements with the Soviet style Communism. He saw firsthand the dissolution of the anarchists and trotskyists by the Soviets in the May Day fightings. He wrote Animal Farm and 1984 to convince his fellow socialists that the Soviets, which at the time seemed like the shining bastion of Socialism, were dangerous and courter-revolutionary.
