orwell and huxley


The comic was suggesting that Huxley hit the nail on the head. The things people take comfort in are ruining society rather than what they loathe. Things like television, video games, and media are ruling our everyday lives.  It distracts us from things that are important in life and sort of sucks the life out of us. I liked the presentation of this article because it compared and contrasted the two books side by side and with pictures rather then with just words. It was easy to follow and simple to understand in the web comic format. If the comic had comparisons without illustrations it wouldn’t be as effective. I felt the pictures helped describe the meaning behind each point. In a nutshell, the comic drew my attention and made both arguments clear.
