Hi guys!
00:00:06
Hello my friends!
00:00:08
Hi guys!
00:00:10
Today we are going to talk about
00:00:12
family, love and friendship
00:00:14
In this video
00:00:16
we are going to compare these three topics
00:00:18
and see the differences between
00:00:20
the new world and our new society
00:00:22
according to these topics
00:00:24
Now we are going to talk about all these things
00:00:26
in brave new world a family isn't a normal concept no one really knows what it is or
00:00:28
understands what it means because everyone has been taught to live the life of the new world
00:00:44
for the people in the in the new world family is seen as a threat to the stability and if
00:00:50
families existed they couldn't control the population and that could destabilize society
00:00:56
and create problems. The world state has created the stability by genetically engineering its
00:01:02
citizens to be happy with who they are and what they do. People aren't born, they are
00:01:08
created in hatcheries and manipulated according to what the government wants to have in society.
00:01:14
And now we are going to tell the difference between how family is seen nowadays and in
00:01:20
family in our world is completely normal for example today when you hear that someone has
00:01:29
grown up without a family it is almost shocking contrary to the new world as everyone there
00:01:36
born and lives all his her life without a family now we are going to see an example that we find
00:01:41
in the book of brave new world they don't understand family when john is upset when he
00:01:48
finds out that his mother is dying no one understands why he acts like that and why
00:01:53
he is so worried. The nurse is very surprised to know that he has a mother, in this case, Linda.
00:01:58
The attitude he takes of crying because of the death of his mother is seen as a misbehavior.
00:02:05
Now we are going to tell some quotations that we find in the book of Brave New World.
00:02:10
For example, the first quotation we find is when John said that she is my mother. He said in a low
00:02:14
voice. The nurse gave him a look of horror. Then quickly, look, away the face red and burdened with
00:02:20
Now we are going to see another quotation when they were in the hospital that the nurse
00:02:27
said.
00:02:32
Remind him where he was, of what harm he might do to these born children, upsetting all their
00:02:33
well-taught death conditioning with his disgusting behaviour.
00:02:42
Now we are going to talk about love.
00:02:52
People in the new world aren't used to love or have any emotional attachments to other
00:02:54
people.
00:02:59
There is also a lot of sexual liberty.
00:03:00
They are used to have a lot of relationships in a short period of time and also orgies.
00:03:03
All these facts are seen as something common, and all people do it.
00:03:09
At the beginning of the book, Lenina tells Fanny, her friend, that she has been with
00:03:14
the same man for four months, and Fanny advises her to begin seeing other men.
00:03:20
The reason for this is the conversation between Lenina and Fanny, her friend.
00:03:26
And she says, but seriously, I don't think you have to be careful.
00:03:31
It's just such bad behavior to go on and on like this with one man.
00:03:36
And you know how angry any affair makes the VHC if it goes on too long.
00:03:44
Four months of Henry Foster without having another man.
00:03:54
The love relationships between the people of the New World aren't real.
00:03:58
They don't really love each other, they just have relationships for fun.
00:04:01
In the case of Bernard, he really likes Lelina.
00:04:05
He doesn't believe in some of the attitudes of the actions of the New World.
00:04:08
In Brave New World, it is perfectly normal to have sex with whenever and whoever you want.
00:04:12
In the book, John would represent nowadays point of view.
00:04:19
Because when Lelina tries to sleep with him, he says it as something horrible and disgusting and got really angry with her.
00:04:23
He also insulted her.
00:04:32
Now I'm going to tell a quotation that John said to Lelina.
00:04:34
War, war for hell, he shouted at her.
00:04:40
In Brave New World, society is designed in a way that makes people equal within its social class.
00:04:42
As a consequence, people in the same social class tend to be friends.
00:04:49
British New World society is made to make friends exchangeable.
00:04:53
Individuality is not possible in some human classes, such as deltas.
00:04:57
They can work as humans, but they can't think as humans.
00:05:03
They are underdeveloped since they are embryos, with drugs such as alcohol.
00:05:07
As every social class is teached to think they are much better than the rest, they don't tend to be friends.
00:05:12
Alphas and betas are able to be friends because they can think properly, and also alphas are not a big group, so they need to mix with betas.
00:05:19
In the book, Lenina is very popular, and she has a lot of friends, but she has only one friend that can be called a real friend, because she is the only one that intimates with her.
00:05:29
Bernard prefers being alone than being with friends, because he is a bit of a philosopher.
00:05:42
He has a friend called Hemholtz who has a lot of female friends just for recreation and sex.
00:05:47
All this world is like a giant lie for alphas, especially for alpha blues.
00:05:53
If one is different, one is born to be lonely.
00:05:59
This quote means that people behaving in a different way are going to be expelled from society because he or she is risking social stability.
00:06:03
And then he spends most of his time by himself, alone.
00:06:12
There was horror in Fanny's voice.
00:06:16
This quote means that people are thought to have lots of friends, but Bernard prefers thinking alone.
00:06:18
There is a clear example in which Lenina and Bernard are in the helicopter over the sea, and Lenina is scared of being there alone, silent.
00:06:25
This can be seen in many different ways all along Brighton New World.
00:06:41
For example, when talking about the one in Mount Pais, one character comes quickly to our mind and that is John.
00:06:44
In the song, a white boy who hardly could make any friends due to his family's bad reputation.
00:06:50
When he was young, his mother had relationships with more than one man.
00:06:56
Something that in a breaking world wasn't seen as a bad thing, but in Malpais was.
00:07:00
After being isolated from the population, John was a lonely and sad boy,
00:07:05
who stayed almost all the time without having any kind of relationship with the other savages,
00:07:09
so he had to find other new hobbies.
00:07:14
When he was older, lots of privileges were grabbed, such as knowing some secrets, going
00:07:16
to the village's temple, etc.
00:07:21
Resuming, he couldn't fit in the savage society.
00:07:23
The Indians rejected any who were different to them.
00:07:26
We hope these quotations will help you understand this topic better.
00:07:29
So for example we have, I ought to have been there, why wouldn't they let me be the sacrifice?
00:07:33
So these quotations appear when John talks to Bernard after the boy that was whipped
00:07:39
in the center of the village because he was like punished because I don't know anything
00:07:52
that he did.
00:07:58
So here we can see the resignation and sadness of John because he was a lonely boy and he
00:08:00
didn't have any friends so he just didn't want to suffer anymore and forget
00:08:07
all the pain and loneliness it was inside his heart then I have another
00:08:13
three or four well that explained really well how John was rejected from the
00:08:22
society so we have not for you white hair the guardians of the temple tell
00:08:29
him this when he wants to enter when he's about 16 years old and he had to
00:08:35
perform the ritual that was at the temple so because he was different the
00:08:42
guardians didn't let him enter so he was alone and out of the temple and the last
00:08:47
ones are not alone always alone so I am terribly alone if one is different one
00:08:55
certain to be lonely they are very cruel to one do you know they shut me off
00:09:02
everything so yeah these are clear examples of loneliness and how sad John
00:09:07
was because like for example due to his mother's I don't know like problems he
00:09:16
couldn't have an easy life and he could he just had to carry all that pain and I
00:09:27
don't know like loneliness yeah this is the main topic of friendship in the
00:09:35
savage society so I hope you liked it you haven't understand something of this
00:09:43
and see you soon bye
00:09:48
Me like a jawbreaker
00:09:57
You got 30
