Naya [18.7K]3 years ago
4 0

According to Thoreau citizens are obligated to act on their conscience, sometimes this means giving opposition to an opinion of those in the majority. These include the likes of present leaders, and societal laws. According to him service to one’s country and resistance are a paradox. He claims patriotism in its highest form is that of resistance.as it strongly shows a passion for not subverting the government, yet, built it better in the long run. Thoreau does not really support a blanket refutation of government, but challenges to specific characters and qualities believed to be one-sided or morally wrong.

What is the tone for the article "forever young: americas obsession with never growing old"
11111nata11111 [884]

In 2013, Dr. Dale Archer posted an article called “Forever Young: American’s Obsession with Never Growing Old” in which he explains how most Americans are so obsessed with looking or acting young in the 21st Century. Archer is deeply worried about how the advances in technology have negatively influenced the way we perceive ourselves nowadays. In his article, Archer is trying to warn the readers about these changes. He wants us to open our eyes, to be critical thinkers, to understand that technology is altering the way we feel about ourselves and our surroundings. The media, television, video games, magazines, among others, are actually trying to convince us of something that we are not. Archer wants us to understand that being old is part of being a human being. Aging is an intrinsic part of our lives that we cannot ever deny and that we all must confront one day.
