A hate-based society is common in the fictional novel 1984 by George Orwell and in our real world, a hate-based society is not an irrational idea. The idea of a hate-based society is founded on fear, power, and of course, hatred. I happen to believe that a society based off hatred and suffering can survive, but that does not mean I would want to live in that particularly shaped society such as Winston Smith did in 1984. In the novel 1984 by George Orwell, a character named O’brien says, “Old civilizations claimed that they were founded on love and justice. Ours is founded on hatred. In our world there will be no emotions except fear and rage” (Orwell 230). O’brien is saying that their society is much different from old civilizations that were founded on the opposite of what Oceania was based on—hate. When O’brien asks another…
by shirley jackson is a short story based on a small town conducting a "lotery" that decides on whether or not who lives based on a simple draw from a box. The reason behind this, whether it be to help the crops grow or to prevent overpopulation, is unknown. Thankfully our society has adapted to be rid of thses horrible traditions, but maybe not entirely. Meaning, maybe our society still has eome of those same awful traitions that are based on ignorance, bigotry, and even religion. Homophobia,…
Imagine being in such a society where you are always being watched and if to do something wrong you get tourchored. Imagine being in a situation like Winston he is in the book 1984 and he wonders when his suffering would end. Otherwise just like during world war two, the people of Asia and Africa wonder when their suffering will ever end. Imagine war that had induced your food shortage and less ways to hydrate yourselves. Imagine thinking of this question in your head would i prefer life or…
training and providing logistical support to a number of other radical groups including based in Algeria, Egypt, Ethiopia, the Russian republic of Chechnya, Libya, The Philippines, Sudan, Syria and Yemen”. (67) The ideology of the terrorism is creating fear, and usually against innocent people, or people who think and act in a different way of any ideology which terrorists believe.

logical explanations to questions once only religion could answer them. As a result, the church and religious authority as an important and influential that obviously undermined and many people took place secularized (= beyond religious lifestyle secular lifestyle). Following the process of secularization created a sense of confusion and non-belonging, and the Enlightenment and secularization used as a replacement for a lost religious identity development following the various fields of life.…
Succumbing to hatred will only result in failure. Maya Angelou once said, “Hate, it has caused a lot of problems, but has not solved one yet.” Hate has become a term used lightly. Teenage girls are known for their common phrases on hatred: I hate my hair, I hate my clothes, I hate my body. It is a part of our daily routine that needs to be removed. Hatred is a thick black fog encompassing society. Tears, jaws, and hearts drop as bystanders and civilians with their eyes glued to the…
In the novel Frankenstein, Mary Shelley explores the judgmental nature of society and how it can have a negative effect on beings brought into our culture. Shelley frequently references the argument of “nature vs. nurture” throughout the text, it is ultimately society’s oppression and judgment that caused the creature Victor Frankenstein brings to life to feel neglected, judged, and depressed. This overwhelming rejection, that stems not just from society but even from his very creator as leads…
Will it Ever End? One thing that makes me furious is racial terminologies used in the workplace. Hatred in the work force is an unseen virus that spread like wildfire. Some managers expressed freely their personal view and others share comments in a joking matter, either way it is very disrespectful. The inappropriate comments and unfair treatment affect the work performance of an employee. The development of racism has shown face everywhere in today’s society. History has provided appeal…
Declaration of Independence War, competition, and eagerness to get rid of the neighbor are a few insincere characters that the current society seems to follow. When a young child sleeps on an empty stomach knowing that when he or she wakes up the dining table will still be vacant, then it is irrational to say society cares. Not only is there a high rate of unemployment, but there is also a towering rate of imprisonment of adolescence. The lack of education and inequitable opportunity in the…
People come in many shapes and sizes. People tend to quickly assess a person based on what they see, but people are more than just what the outside shows. A person’s appearance does not reveal a person for who they really are. It is normal for people to try and place other people into categories based on several factors. People can be classified into three different categories: race, religion, and personality. The first thing people notice when encountering someone is the person's outward…
