Loss Of Freedom In The Book Anthem

Utopian societies aren’t always as they seem. The author of the book Anthem grew up in a collectivist society and is voicing her opinion through the character Equality about individualism. The book Anthem can be classified as a dystopia, because the government is trying to force everyone to be equal, people are miserable, but don’t want to say or do anything about it, and not everyone knows the truth about the unmentionable times. In the book Anthem the government, known as the World Council, has an excessive amount of control over the people in their city.

V was at Lark Hill to be exterminated, likely for knowing too much about the government. There is a huge fire and almost everyone dies, except V and Delia.

Finally on page 245, Tam Lin reveals to Matt the truth that there is no difference between humans and clones. In the book, Tam Lin said that no one can tell the difference between humans and clones because there is no difference. He also said that clones being inferior are a lie. When Matt heard this, he couldn’t believe it because his whole life argued against it. However, as he lived in Aztlán, he realized that what Tam Lin had said was true and no one found out Matt was a clone until they found Matt’s tattoo.

To conclude, the fragmented world inside The Great Gatsby is proven to exist because of the constant greed, lack of loyalty and the major difference in social class. People are living a lie, are desperate to live with status and wealth while lower to middle class citizens are living next to mansions. The American Dream is decaying and because of this, people are destroying the world around them. The people in this book are all separating from something, just like a fragment. All of this further validates that this society that Nick lives in is fragmented, broken and

The general argument made by author Pascal Emmanuel-Gobry his work “Abolish Prison”, is that he believes the reason of the prison is very stupid and weird to punish a criminal.

This cause can cause an effect of paranoia and a lot sexual misconduct due to the fact that men are surrounding by other men not by women's.

Although, he is viewed as a radical and a crazy person he greatly impacted people’s views about speaking out against laws that are abusive. Gandhi and Thoreau had many similar views about how life works and the correct way a citizen should act in a society.

If there is no competition in life and everybody is equal then life would be considered boring and there would be no sense of fun for anyone in society. Kurt Vonnegut shows the only way everybody can be equal in society can be if non average people

The low toleration for the homeless American society has is the root of the problem due to it alienating them from our society when in reality they are normal people. Media and society tells us that the homeless are dirty, unsafe and are not to be trusted. Truthfully this mentality or idea we have fixed in our brains is the main cause for their criminalization. A reason for their criminalization is because of their status in our society and how we look down on them for it , mentioned by The Guardian. For example businesses will have a homeless person physically removed for reasons such as creating an unsafe business environment or for other reasons such as being dirty or even loitering.

There are no men but only the great WE, One, indivisible and forever” (Rand 19). Everyone was taught to love and cherish their brothers because they were made as one and were all equal. Even though Equality knew he was different, he tried

He is not looking for pity of a crutch because he is far too independent and strong now to search for sympathy for a circumstance he cannot change. His friends and family are always left profoundly astonished by his actions and thoughts presented in certain scenarios where depression and negativity arise from a social environment. He once told me that “The only time I felt as if I had a father or a teacher was at someone else’s home.” But the part the makes me the proudest to know him is the fact that if you were to have just met Hunter, you would never have any idea what he deals with or where he has come from. Hunter is strong, and he is the perfect example of not letting circumstances change your

The quote symbolizes that when applied to life, Equality 7­2521 has free will ­ a choice in how he lives, his own destiny and the path that he wants to follow. In Anthem, the society is one in which everyone is equal and no one is superior to anyone else. However, society comes with a price as no one is able to think or speak for themselves. When Equality 7­2521 realizes that he can think and speak for himself in his “new world” then his new reality stems from

Broken lives, chained minds, and a deceitful government left a shadow of oppression over both the society in Anthem and the society in Stung. Although not always aware, the leaders of the society had beaten the minds of the people and mutilated their freedom. Just as in Anthem, the sorrow felt by the people in Stung was a result of tragedy onset by the government. In Anthem they had reverted back to the beginning and left behind all the advancement from the unmentionable times. The leaders of their societies not only took away the freedom to be yourself as an individual they smothered any spark of imagination.
