Dystopia
Dystopia
is through technology. The people here dont think much, which is what
government wants, and they are kept passive, with no connection or
communication to the outside world. (This is due to government being
too afraid to reveal their wrong doings in the past.) Because the
government is too afraid of revealing the truth history of their wrong
done. In order to obliterates their wrongful evidence, all the books are
burnt, so that people will have no connection with past and wont fight
for their basic rights. The government consider, who absorbed in TV,
music and machinery are set to be conform or NORM. Those who
disobey the laws such as walking out at late night, reading books and
driving little slow on highway will be jailed. Due to strong repression,
people are left with mentally illness with no emotions, no facial
impression, they dont know why they are unhappy and they take
sleeping pills before they go to sleep. This clearly shows the image of a
dystopian society of the future world.
Based on the world I see around me today, I too can imagine a world
where everyone conforms but simply through the power of advertising
and big companies controlling how people think for instance (big
companies controlling the way people think, for instance), Years
ago in China, a man sold his kidney just to buy an iPad. The new
inventions and fashions tend to create desire among people to run after
their products. From my own experience, I come to city to attain my two
morning classes and go back home by train, every time I observe
everyone being busy flickering their androids mobiles, ipads and
listening to music but I am afraid that one day our society might consider
being it as a conformity, which (will eventually leads to fading away
of) leads to fade away the interaction between people into oblivion. All
this is due to the power of advertising and the humans false conception
on advertisement.
After all, the world of dystopia really much (in fact depends) depends
on the desire of the oneself, misleading and ignorant. Thus, the power
of the majority and the individual desires to conform allows dystopia.
