This concept, however, is thwarted in Brave New World. The society has their "stability to think of. [They] don't want to change. Every change is a menace to stability," (p.224, 225). This shows that the society discourages change, which also means no future growth.
Greg will not win the case based in religion discrimination. The third employee is Horatio. Horatio may believe he is being terminated because he has another lawsuit pending for race discrimination (protected population). However, Horatio has no experience in HR polices or laws and will not be able to take over any other duties after the downsizing is complete.

They can learn about countries that used their power to do bad things but they need to see that in history it has never worked out and will not help the country out in the long run. In
If you are raised with neglectful parents, you wouldn’t have a proper mentor to tell you what’s right and wrong, so that could cause you to do bad things and lose your innocence. Also, if you are raised with abusive and drunk parents, it could cause you to resent and hate them. An example of someone like that would be Johnny; he hates his parents so much that he refused his mother to let her see him in the hospital. “I've got a RIGHT to see him! He's my son!
Nicholas II was the last tsar of the Romanov dynasty, and his own arrogance and incompetence was a key factor in what led him to that title. His decision to maintain an autocratic government, fight in the Russo-Japanese war, and, ultimately, drag Russia into World War I, proved he was not fit to rule, and his actions led to the destruction of his dynasty.

Nicholas II was an implacable autocrat, and his fear of change alienated the Russian people from their leader. When Nicholas was young, he witnessed his grandfather, Alexander II, being assassinated by terrorists.

Any taxpayer in the right mind would be up in arms over this. They shouldn’t have to pay taxes to give sick, disgusting murderers new identities to protect them. Where’s the sense in that? Jon Venables and Robert Thomson certainly didn’t protect James Bulger and his family. So they definitely should not be protected at all, especially not at the taxpayer’s expense.
Much of that history is painful. Indeed, it is to avoid confronting the pain of that history that black parents sometimes mobilize to ban the novel. Pushing history aside, however, is no solution to the larger challenge of dealing with its legacy. Neither is placing the task of dealing with it on one book. Therefore, to say “ignorance is bliss” would be a seditious act against the educational system in
Postman uses a point-by-point argument to prove that Huxley’s vision is more relevant than Orwell’s. Postman says “What Orwell feared were those would ban books. What Huxley feared was that there would be no reason to ban a book, for there would be no one who wanted to read one” (Lines 12-13). Orwell’s vision of banning books could never happen in today’s society because of the first amendment.
