Ever feel like some kind of hipster when you just want to reject - TopicsExpress



          

Ever feel like some kind of hipster when you just want to reject trends, popularity, social conventions, etc? Not just not participate, but openly reject them? I was just repairing upon how dance halls have become scenes right out of Brave New World, homes are beginning to look like Montag’s from Fahrenheit 451, and vocabulary and usage is approaching doubleplusgood levels. I am actually quite an optimist, and some great things are happening today, but when I see people recreating with their words and actions the nightmares from Aldous Huxley, Ray Bradbury, and George Orwell, I wonder what we have lost to get here.
