A Perfect World Is Non-Existant In Brave New World

As demonstrated in Aldous Huxley's Brave New World the idea of a world that is perfect is non-existent. But the similarities in the errors that are made by Huxley's society while trying to achieve this perfection are strangely similar to those made in our day and age. Children playing with complicated machines, world leaders wanting to increase consumption in order augment cash flow, children participating in sexual activities, scientists trying to play God, no distinctiveness, drugged happiness; Huxley's vision of the future is our present.

Huxley's description of world leaders as he imagined they would be is extremely similar to what they truly are. His creation of these demanding leaders is no different than our world leaders now, whose goals are to become as rich and powerful as ever. Just as the leaders in the book want to control everything without letting there citizens be aware of there doings, our world leaders do everything in their power to become wealthier without any approval from their citizens. These same leaders use their powers to brainwash their people in order for them to agree with their decisions, the same way that the leaders of the New World brainwash the children through Hypnopaedic teachings in order for them to agree with them when they become adults.

We can also see the similarities that in this Brave New World and in our world there is nothing close to perfection. Whenever there is a try at this Utopia there is always an outcast such as Bernard Marx., who chooses not to obey and by one person choosing not to obey it will cause a flow of people to disobey. At the same time in both of these worlds there exists an enormous presence of no distinctiveness between people. In Brave New World there are thousands of followers that do not think for themselves but do only that, follow. They are ordered around and do nothing about it. Though these people were created this way, Huxley's views of a future where very few of us are an individual is very close to reality. Nowadays there are very few people who maintain a view of the world that is their own. They would rather follow someone else's beliefs without making sure that they share the same principles.

In Huxley's life he most likely saw children playing with baseballs, footballs, and jump
