read: BEST. dystopian fiction is a great genre. but what’s number one?
@theblessing 1984 is about the experience of a low caste member in a dystopia, bnw is about the experience of a high caste member. High cast members get to go to the feelies, the orgies, they get to have soma, they have relative freedom. The proles in 1984 get jack shit, they get the two minutes hate and gruel and barely any cigarettes and have to make a razor last long past it's point of usability. The proles do not get to have feelies, and orgies, and soma, no, the proles get to have disgusting old rotten whores with painted faces to trick you until you get real close, close enough to smell em.
@angryandignored @theblessing You're a cunt but you make good points, yet you completely ignore the fact that those children were not prole children, they were not wildmen chileren, they were chileren grown in tubes, like all the other upper class members, because they were upper class children. And so I'm still right, and not quite as retarded as I appear.
@Fullycaffeinated @theblessing @angryandignored She called me an asshole, first interaction, wonderful people you lot
Women are not a public resource for a socialist regime.
They didn't even factor into your view of people and it makes me exhausted.
@Fullycaffeinated @theblessing @angryandignored I'm generally nice to people when they're not pieces of shit btw, so if you want to side with team shitbird, the shithawk of shitfuck retard mountain, be my guest, and I'll call you a cunt too.
I mean in each novel there's a totalitarian government preventing any sort of bond between two people.
When was the last time you read Brave New World? Do you not understand how going through the motions with no deep connections is depicted as isolating?
Oh wait, you probably just imagine orgasming a lot and I suppose since 1984 had a government that wanted to destroy the orgasm, that's why you disliked it.
To get back to the point, replacing women with machines takes the humanity out of being humans and reduces children to a commodity. It is not something to strive for and would probably have a disastrous impact in the synthetically-created offspring.
Also women are people.
Women are not a resource to extract, asshole.
Brave New world is consumption as escape from tyranny and 1984 is isolation and authoritarianism with out right authoritative denial of the very tyranny that oppresses him. It destroys love and family via psychological means without using technology because it's not developed yet.
