in the beggining, yes. towards the end, their attitudes change
During the second asembly the littlun with the mulberry coloured birth mark on his face raised the subject of the snake-thing. Although the boys mocked the littlun many of them felt a distinct sense of unease. Ralph boosted their morale and raised their spirits by telling them that he'd decided that they wanted to have fun and they wanted to get rescued. This simple statement shifted the boys attention away from the idea of beasts in the dark jungle and focused them instead on positive thoughts. Ralph lifted the boys spirits further when he said, "We want to be rescued; and of course we shall be rescued."
Instead of going to the other side of island to check the fire the boys want to make a fort. The boys also want to roll rocks.
Piggy
Ralph thinks that "the beast" is on the mountain top, preventing them from having the fire there, to quote directly from the book, he said... "And now that thing squats by the fire as though it didn't want us to be rescued---"

because they dont want to
The quote "Who said I was talking about smoke? Don't you want to be rescued? All you talk about is pig, pig, pig!" is spoken by Ralph in William Golding's "Lord of the Flies." In this moment, Ralph expresses his frustration with Jack's obsession with hunting pigs instead of focusing on their primary goal of being rescued from the island. This exchange highlights the growing divide between the boys' priorities and the tension between civilization and savagery.

Ralph wants to build huts but jack wants to hunt he says they need meat more than they need huts

Ralph says this line in "Lord of the Flies." It is a reflection of the desperation and fear that the boys feel as they struggle to maintain a signal fire on the island to attract rescue.
The atmosphere in "Lord of the Flies" is tense, suspenseful, and foreboding. The isolated island setting, the power struggles among the boys, and the escalating violence create a sense of unease and darkness throughout the novel.
The quote "We wants meat" is said by the character Jack in the novel "Lord of the Flies" by William Golding. The line represents the desire for power and control over resources that eventually leads to savagery among the boys on the island.
The islanders unanimously vote for Ralph, to Jack's disdain.
In the novel The Lord of the Flies, there is no "governmental" structure. There are numerous young boys stranded on an island together (the oldest of which I do believe to be about fifteen) with no rules or consequences. With no structure and no rules to follow, these children do whatever they want whenever they want, thus resulting in the fall of their "society."
while Ralph is being chased by jack and his bloodthristy hunters.... jack has burned the whole island and the navy sees the smoke and Ralph trips and sees boots and he sees a naval officer while almost dying....throughout the novel, Ralph says that fire is the most important thing and jack burns the island and the navy sees it...tahts an example of situational irony
Ralph refuses to paint faces in "Lord of the Flies" because he believes it is unnecessary and a waste of time. He values practical tasks that will help them be rescued rather than focusing on superficial appearances like the boys who paint their faces. Additionally, Ralph sees painting faces as a regression to savagery and a symbol of their descent into chaos on the island.
