This sounds good on paper but I don't think it can happen. people are selfish and eventually something will go wrong. It will start off nice but it will slowly revert to the world we live in now.

This is what makes dystopias a dystopia. There are always people who are setting and conforming to the society they live in until that one person is questioning everything and trying to make a change.

This made me think of the movie smart house. The main character had no mom and wanted everything to be perfect. He also wanted to stop his dad from dating. He and his family moved into a house that had a computerized mother who eventually turned real and things got crazy.

Honestly this is an interesting way to look at it. I would have to agree with this. Whenever you watch or read anything about dystopias is always exaggerated.

I agree with this. What the future holds is unknown. I can recall hearing the world was going to end twice and people being scared. Even were I am in my life today it's not what I thought it would be.

why does he think this?

Men tend to compete with each other. They are focused on what others think of them and changing based off of how others feels about them. When they should really should make the rules on how they lives for themselves.

There may not always be a physical war but people might be fighting a battle in their head or be at odds with others with no solution in sight.

this reminds me of the story the Tortoise and the Hare. The strongest person may think they don't have to try as hard because they are stronger but they are wrong. The "weaker" person has to think logically and keeps going because what else do they have to lose.

All people ever want to be is free and sadly that doesn't happen.

This is very sad to me. To not know peace in your life is not good. To think that the world is nothing but terror should not be a thing.

Obviously cleanliness is important, but how does that make one uncivilized?

I think this is true. Society is built around what works for men and women have to adjust to it. This is a mans world and Women are fighting everyday to get their rights.

I agree. Happiness is something that does not come easy to everybody. There are certain things that happen in our lives that mess with our mental.

I agree with this. There will always be some type of suffering in the world. It also reminded me of a quote that I love, "to live is to suffer, but to survive, thats to find meaning in the suffering"

I think that it should. It may not be the only word that can be used to describe the injustices of the world but it is one.

I do want to know what word people would use instead?

This statement is so powerful to me. Describing rape as a horror is completely true. I feel as if this sets the tone of the authors views.
