Equality 7-2521: A Dystopian Society

I think that the character Katniss Everdeen from the hunger games by Suzanne Collins and Julian from Wonder by R.J. Palacio have many differences, but I 'm going to find out the similarities between them such as being deceiving. The first reason why I think Julian is deceiving is because they act differently in front of different people the adults think that Julian is a great kid to have, but to the kids he is a bully and some people want nothing to do with him. This proves that julian is deceiving because he has gotten the adults to believe that he is the best, but in all reality he is not. And why I think Katniss is deceiving is for mostly the same reason but instead of acting different in front of people she acts different in front of the

The Emperor 's New Clothes also “dramatizes the dangers of habitual blindness in the name of social discretion.” Basically it means that this story is meant to open the eyes of those who are “blind” and just follow the crowd as if they have no brain of their own. However, as a result of a child’s ignorance, children do not seem to understand what society “requires” because they tend to do the noblest and bravest things. According to Hollis Robbins, “the child does not see invisible labor.”

However, he was wise at the end. Jonas’s naivety was evident when Jonas was thinking about volunteer hours and how they were always important to him because the other hours of the day were regulated heavily. This shows that Jonas is naive because he does not know that having very little free choice is not normal, and that most people from the time before him had the freedom to choose how they spent their time, “The freedom to choose where we spend those hours had always seemed a wonderful luxury to Jonas” (Page: 26). Another example came later in the book as Jonas was talking to The Giver about color and quickly rebukes the community that they should not have eliminated color.

In Mollers case the Ritalin was available to him and when he weighed out his options he really didn 't have too much too lose. When Moller was a student, he saw “the negative of doing poorly on the test was far greater than the negative of getting caught, discounted by the anesthetic of low probability”. Not only were the side effects small but the author also didn 't see what he was doing as a problem because, “I was much more worried about the scholastic consequences of I were discovered abusing a

”According to Huxley’s expressive text, conditioned citizens are so indefinitely invested in the hollow happiness the government supply’s, they lose appreciation, respect, sympathy, attachment and compassion for others. Thus, due to the ultimately reconstructed mindset of society, human lives no longer have purpose or significance, and because the constantly happy society is causing this, it is definite that life isn’t supposed to be incessantly

The value of fairness was broken, because I took that extra advantage over other students when it was not necessary to do at all. Finally, responsibility was broken because, I was not responsible and procrastinated on my work which was the cause of all of this to begin with and I fell to the pressures of wrongdoing. I should have been responsible enough to avoid all of this to begin with. Looking back now, although I can say assuredly that the professor was not pleased with me to begin before this incident with due to a lack of empathy, this does not condone the actions I took. Honestly, I regret the decision I made as it was a weak one.

Equality was also highly intelligent, smarter than his brothers, and he had potential to be an amazing member of the city, but he was never given the chance to be great. He was downgraded and placed as a street sweeper because he preferred to be a Scholar. Equality tried very hard to fit in a be like his brothers. It states, “We looked upon Union 5-3992, who were a pale boy with only half a brain, and we tried to say and do as they did, that we might be like them, like Union 5-3992, but somehow the Teachers knew that we were not.” (Rand 21).

Because the educated person is good, he will help anyways. He will educate them on their ignorance, and he will help them hike through the cave, educating them every step of the way, all because that is what a “good” person does. Some won’t make it to the light, but the ones who do are now educated and considered to be

Growing up is bad, because people are kinder and more tolerant towards children, and as people grow up, they have to worry more about doing the right thing. Innocence is bliss, and younger people don’t realize all of the negative things around them and the people trying to shelter them from bad things. However, as people grow up, they will notice more negative things and become more skeptical about the way the world works. In The Catcher in the Rye, J.D. Salinger shows that growing up is a bad thing because younger people don’t realize things that they start to notice as they grow older that will make them more skeptical about the world. Growing up is a bad thing because people do not criticize children as much, and children are more innocent

I had tried to just avoid the academic side to school, as silly as it sounds. I loved being around the other kids and having friends, but I hated being compared to them. That day, however, I couldn’t shy away from the intellectualism that school revolved around. That day my fatuousness was painfully evident, and I couldn’t stand being academically inferior to my peers or even my educators anymores. I was convinced that I could be just as good as the rest of them.

It is far more common to hear about leaders who mistreat the people around them than hearing about great leaders who make everyone feel a sense of worth and actually care about their surrounding peers. In this experiment most people in authority, including the researchers, forgot to ask themselves how their behavior was affecting those that were not in power. How many awful things does one have to do before their integrity can be questioned? Milgram and Zimbardo’s experiments propose the idea that one’s integrity has nothing to do with how they react in the experiments because behavior is situational. But the guards in Zimbardo’s experiment did some really awful things and Eshleman in particular, to this day speaks about the things he did very lightheartedly, finding it all a bit humorous.

Holden is asking for Carl Luce 's company because he was trying to get rid of some of his loneliness and that wasn 't the only reason too. Holden believes that Carl is an expert on sex and is really smart. Holden had hoped that Carl would had cast some light on his own problem. But Carl believe that Holden is still too immature to hear anything he have to say about it. I think the patterns of Holden 's mind is actually that he is actually teaching himself a lesson for missing his brother 's funeral, and having

In the novella Anthem, individual rights and freedom do not exist. The word “I” is prohibited to be spoken by men. Equality 7-2521 is a street sweeper of the city and he is different from the others in the society. Equality is more intelligent, taller, learns quicker, and he enjoys learning about science; especially how things move and work. Since the word “I” is the unspeakable word, Equality uses the word “We” to resemble that he is doing these actions .

Everyone is born with independence, but imagine a society where this virtue is ceased. In the novel “Anthem” written by Ayn Rand, she describes a society in which everyone is the exact same. Equality 7-2521 and Liberty 5-3000 are two characters that live under a strict and controlling rule, in which they make decisions for you. As they story goes on, the two characters discover love, freedom, liberty, and independence. To Equality, being similar to his brothers was not equal, he believes that the meaning of “I” celebrates joy and peace within a society.

The novel Anthem by Ayn Rand is taking place in the future. Equality 7-2521 found a tunnel and is doing experiments in it and one day falls in love with Liberty 5-3000. Later in the novel he fails to return to the home of street sweepers and got questioned where he was, but he did not answer. So, they took him Palace of Corrective Detention where they whooped him, but he still did not say anything and so he got sent to jail. He later escaped and tried to show his experiment to Home of the Scholars.
