I just got done reading the book Brave New World by Aldous Huxley. It was frightening to see how much stuff he wrote about in the 1930's is actually coming true. He wrote about how children would be sexualized. They are.
We see it every day and every time we turn around. From a celebrity wanting to set up a hookup service for sexy kids. To a celebrity making sexy clothing lines for kids. Disgusting!
Another prophecy he had was about the style of governing. One person in charge of everything and everyone is zoned out on a drug called Soma. We have these type of drugs. Prozac.... Yes, Mr. Huxley really called this one. We are divided into classes as they were.
Their classes went by how they were educated. Oxy-morons were the ones who did the cleaning. Mind-numbing jobs that the Alpha Plus would never do. In between, there was Delta which did clerical jobs like filing. Then the Beta did other jobs that Alphas were too educated to do but Deltas could never understand.
We have poor, those who are hanging on by a thread. Middle, those who could drop into the poor at any time. And then the elites. They leach off of everyone else and live their parasitic lives. Sucking up the lines of cocaine and being useless. At last, we have the working poor. They exist to scare the hell out of the middle and to subsides the elites with brain power.
Oh yeah... Let's not forget the wars. Because in the Brave New War there is no war. That does sound good.
