Watching television and seeing the advertisements brain washes us into thinking that doing dangerous or making wrong decisions is the right thing to do. This is showing that Aldous Huxley was right about the new world we are living in, because by watch television we don’t really think about what’s going on around us and the advertisements shown don’t help us make smarter decisions. Overpopulation is another issue that has accurate in the new world that made what Huxley say was true. Overpopulation has hurt our world since there isn’t enough jobs for people and then they can’t help out their families and poverty takes over. Less goods have also had a great impact in the world because items are being overpriced and a lot of people can’t buy them if they don’t have a good job and money. Also the use of technology has had a great affect in our society whether that’s for good or bad use. Huxley believed that technology could be used as a distraction form of propaganda. Today we have television and smart phones that show us advertisements and controls us to buy things or believe in things that aren’t true. This has caused a great amount of harm in our world because people believe everything they see on social media and television, that leads people to harm themselves and others around them.
