For Ap LA, I have to make a formal speech either defending or condemning the World State. I want to defend it because I think it would be interesting to try that point of view, but I can't find any real good points. Any help would be appreciated. Also, if you have any real good insights condemning it, I would also welcome those.
Good choice! That's where I'd go as well.Originally Posted by mattman292
Shouldn't be too hard to sell Utopia - free sex, mind-bending drugs, movies with real feeling, no hard work... Sure, things might have a bit of sameness about them, but from an existential perspective, Utopia is the place to be!
The condemnation comes from the lack of free will, but I'd trade a fair bit of free will for a peaceful, stable society with no poverty.
Go to work, get married, have some kids, pay your taxes, pay your bills, watch your tv, follow fashion, act normal, obey the law and repeat after me: "I am free."
