3. For English, we had to read English literature. A big genre within English literature were dystopian novels. A dystopia is basically a government controlled society where you just get banished or something if you don’t comply with the strict rules of said society. ...
Probably the most famous example of a dystopian novel is 1984 by George Orwell. The biggest thing I remember is the “Big brother is watching you” part. People in the world of that book are never safe. Age, race, gender, all of that doesn’t matter. You are being watched ...
... was the message they wanted to deliver. This seems to be the case for USA citizens who voiced their opinion on social media and literally had people invading their house or whatever (kinda makes the fbi meme scary). Now the point of a dystopian novel is to warn ...
... warn the reader what could happen in the future if things get out of hand. Now I kinda start to feel like the future is now and the US tries to become the dystopia writers like George Orwell warned us for.
4. War. History was one of my favorite subjects in high school (shoutout to my teacher) and, from my point of view, it seems like the death of George Floyd might be what indicated the start of an actual war, much like the assassination of Prinz Ferdinand started WW1. ...
... In short, things in EU were getting kinda out of hand and the death of Prince Ferdinant (idk how you write his name btw lol) is seen as the final straw, set of some kind of chain reaction and ultimately led to a war. (?/?+1)
The US right now slightly reminds me of those events in 1914 and I genuinely hope history doesn’t repeat itself. Now if there are some mistakes please bear with me this is all just knowledge that I remembered, not read up on recently.
Anyways, stay safe and stay strong
