While everyone was falling into Napoleon and Squealer's false propaganda, Boxer suddenly realized that something was going wrong with the farm. He knew how Snowball was heroic and brave at the battle and a good leader of the farm, but Napoleon was cursing at him. Napoleon blamed Snowball for everything that went wrong even though he was not there. Even though he knew something was wrong, he blamed that to the animals, not Napoleon. He's not intelligent and educated.

Because all animals think that the society is built by themselves and that it is themselves who have to make it better (if it is getting better), they believe the executions are due to them and that it is their fault that this violence occurred. This is once again, showing naive worker population somewhat foolish. They are not recognizing the fault of Napoleon. That he is the one who ordered them to kill such animals. However the social unrest of thinking that Napoleon is always great and do what is for the best, they think it is their fault and Boxer being the most naive one decides to "work harder".
