Better for everybody, or just better for you?

It took me a while to wrap my mind around the insanity that was the first four chapters of Aldous Huxley’s “Brave New World”, but once I managed to not lose my head (and my temper) at how children were, by today’s standards, abused and mentally poisoned I began to have an understanding of these so-proclaimed World Leaders and scientists. The altering of a human’s chemical makeup and the manipulating of an individual’s personality has proven in the society of “Brave New World” to be a stabilizing and controlling method that allow for the masses to be easily subdued. It would be no surprise if politicians today were considering funding projects like these so that the thoughts and ideas of those “free-thinkers” and “freedom-writers” would cease to be proclaimed. Their idea of a perfect utopian society is just a controlling lie covered up by a sly smile and a nod.
Throughout the first three chapters the Director of Hatcheries and Conditioning and a man known as Mustapha Mond, the Controller, mention how languages have gone extinct (Polish, French, German!), how history books have been eradicated, and lastly how the mere mention of “parents” causes the young students to blush. The fact is that these things and many others were done away with was because they stood in the way of COMMUNITY, IDENTITY, and STABILITY. The World State’s motto, first used in the first paragraph of the first chapter, at first may paint an amiable possibility but it just covers up the paranoia of those control freaks known as the World Leaders. The simple fact that humans are created through in vitro to allow scientists to genetically alter their appearance and minds to fit into a determined caste is a red flag in itself that warns of a lunatic society.
Oh, poor Bernard Marx. Even though you are quickly becoming the protagonist in my opinion, you still bare the blame of your society’s crazy antics to provide “stability” since you clearly demonstrate those ridiculous prejudices taught at a young age through the hypnopaedic process.
