This is exactly what the totalitarian government, in Bradbury’s Novel, wants for their mindless society. The more addicted people become to technology, the less people will socialize and care about one another. Along with dehumanizing society, technology aids in the total government control which creates a dangerous future for mankind. One of the key factors in this futuristic government’s grasp on society is the extensive amount of propaganda and
Kitchener-Waterloo. A city with so many cell phones they will soon develop brains and rule the world. Other than our obvious overuse of our cellular devices, there is a lot wrong with K-W from a teenager’s point of view. Our transit system desperately needs improvement, there are few places to spend your time, while enjoying it, and we seriously lack any good entertainment. The life of a teenager is a boring one, and these problems only make our lives worse.

An example of Evyn being unintelligent was when her so-called friends, Andrea’s group, calls her Evelyn and doesn’t talk to her unless it’s to ask about updates with Ajax, she doesn’t realize that they’re just using her. Evyn was also, very inconsiderate and selfish. She didn’t seem to notice how happy her father, Birdie was after he had proposed to Eleni. Evyn doesn’t seem to care what his father felt and made it harder for him. “Bounce” was an interesting book that showed problems that actually happen to 13 year olds.
Cara Kildall Period 5 10/17/08 LOTF Final Dictatorship is a slightly barbaric form of government that mistreats its citizens, and is ineffective. People’s mental welfare is in danger, because of the stress and trepidation of trying to live through another day. Also, they live in apprehension of being hurt or, in the case of Lord of the Flies, going crazy. Lawlessness is unhealthy for children and adults, and so a solid government is essential for happiness. Under dictatorship, many citizens feel incredible fear and deep unhappiness.
It would be very prejudicial and people would stop caring for who you care and just look at what your hereditary traits say. In my opinion, this movie portrays very effectively what our society would come to if this happened.

Mankind was consumed with technology they ended up not thinking of the damage they could cause with a nuclear war.
Limited education is layed out through the government’s manipulation of the past, newspeak which is the government limiting language, and mob physcology. Newspeak is the new way people speak in the country, it is condensing vocabulary to the most limited words possible. The point of Newspeak was to “limit human thought” in order to keep the citizens unable to express thoughts that the goverement did not want them to think, which illustrates the pyscological power of a goverement in society. Another example of the nation limited education is mob physcology, when everyone accepts everything they are told it is scary to become an indivisual and think for yourself in fear of what others will do to you or think. The goverement also alters the past immensely in the
If you look around, it is difficult to find a group in which not a single person is using their phone at that moment nor has it on their person. Technology consumes our everyday lives and we feel lost without it. Sherry Turkle, a professor of sociology at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, sees these as symptoms of a technological addiction that our society is slowly succumbing to, causing us to retreat into the technological abyss of isolation. In her TED Talk, she presents her view with the intent of convincing her audience that this problem needs to be solved immediately. Turkle uses personal anecdotes, inclusive language, and confusion through paradox to create a relationship with the audience that induces emotions of fear and longing for connection.
