Brave New World Persuasive Essay
Today we live in a society that has Brave New World written all over it. A lot of people wouldn’t agree with me, but those are the same people who refuse to open their minds and eyes to what’s actually happening in the world. It’s literally right in front of us not to the same extent, but its close. For this essay I chose the topic of how close we are to the Brave New World by Aldous Huxley in terms of personal relationships and society.

They talk about how sexualizing 3-year-olds is now normalized. (What Happened to Little Girls ) We make fake relationships for our kids because we think it’s funny, but it’s conditioning them to think they have to be in a relationship at all times.

All these reasons are proof that we are becoming like the Brave New World, hopefully not as inhumane as them. I definitely think that in years to come this could happen, the New World Order for example, is just a
