The humans also responded with relief when the windmill was showing weakness because its frailty clearly proved that the animals were worthless. Therefore, the humans started to believe in their own advantage and superiority. By blaming Snowball for the destruction of the windmill, Napoleon rejects the idea that it was possibly his miscalculations that led the windmill to be so weak. Napoleon thereby makes Snowball into a scapegoat and manipulates the other animals to believe that Snowball deserved all the blame. On the other hand, the humans blame the weakness of the windmill on the worthlessness of the animals who built it. They state that the walls are too thin and that's why it was destroyed, and even though Napoleon denies this, when they try to rebuild the windmill, they make the walls thicker.
