  • To make a connection between American society’s desire for equality and its fears of conformity.
  • To exaggerate the absurdity of the American vision of a utopian society in which everyone is equal.
  • To warn citizens of the dangers of government control through an imagined, futuristic society.

Harrison Bergeron is a satirical, dystopian science-fiction short story. It was written by American author Kurt Vonnegut and published in 1961. The story talks about a society in which the government regulates that everyone should be equal in beauty, brains and physical capacity. This forces the population to wear "handicaps." The satire warns against government control while criticizing society's obsessive quest for equality.

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]
To establish an effective argument, it's important to eliminate emotions.

Pointing fingers, creating issues, and demonstrating power will likely take credit away from your argument, as these techniques are all largely intimidation tactics. On the other hand, by eliminating emotions, you can focus on the facts of the argument, which will establish more credibility.

The Knights of the Round Table express their solidarity by wearing a green girdle as Gawain does. Why does Gawain wear the green
Serjik [45]
Gawain wears the green girdle as a token of his failure for not keeping his promise. He was supposed to give the host that he would give him whatever he gained that day, but he didn't give him the green girdle for fear that he would die. After being called out because of that, Gawain swears to wear the green sash for the rest of his life, and the Knights of the Round Table start wearing it as well after absolving him of blame.
