Answer:
1. Propaganda is used to control the citizens of society.
2. Information, independent thought, and freedom are restricted.
3. Citizens have a fear of the outside world.
4. Citizens live in a dehumanized state.
5. The society is an illusion of a perfect utopian world.
Explanation:
The passage in the question is from the very first paragraph of the text of Kurt Vonnegut's "Harrison Bergeron", a novel about a dystopian world. This excerpt shows the perceived "perfect utopian world' whereas the citizens still seem to be under the constant threat of being 'punished'.
The passage is also an example of the characteristics of a dystopic world that is the setting of the story. Here, propaganda is used as a means to control the citizens, with the restriction of the information and various other independent thoughts. This led to the fear and reluctance of the citizens in associating with the outside world, and the dehumanization of the perceived perfect society. All these is an illusion that the society they are living is the perfect utopian world.
When constructing an argumentative essay, incorporate sources that are or are close to irrefutable and have relevance to what you are discussing. For example, if your topic is about why sanitary napkins for women should be free at school then present facts about how not everyone has access to them at home or how the expense would not cost a lot. However, no matter what you say it can not be opinion driven and you must have valir reasons and statistics to support your point. So using the previous topic, I would mention the actual estimated price free sanitary napkins would cost or talk about the struggles of teenage girls or teachers who cannot afford tampons. Additionally in your argumentative essay, you will need a counterclaim which is you rebuting a popular misconception or a common opposing viewpoint. For example, one may mention how female students and faculty would abuse the privilege and would not use it for only emergencies. They would then combat the statement by highlighting how many schools that do offer free sanitary napkins obtained a specific system that allows them to monitor who is borrowing what and the quantity of how much they borrow by making the pads accessible at the nurse or the administration office. You will know if something supports your claim if the evidence has the same topic and main idea as your objective and if it does not disprove your belief.
