First Brave New World Entry

In "A Brave New World" they have created equality and conformity with their approach to human production. Each person is part of a large "batch" of humans exactly identicle to each other. This literally creates the equality in the society.
They have reduced conflict in religion by teaching them one religion and programming people to believe the same thing. All aspects of society are controlled by the prenatal and postnatal conditioning of the embryos.
In this society they have forced happiness. When a person is ever unhappy they simply take a dose of soma and drift away into a mindless lala land.
This society is definitely a dystopia. Single cases such as Bernard cause the definition of utopia to be unsuitable.

  1. Lacking idea development in the Brave New World posts. Improving the idea development in these practices will improve your on demand writings we do in class. Remember: claim, support, explanation.
