The passage contains the device

B. Polysyndeton

Explanation:

This obscure literary device here is used masterfully to contain the lines of this passage into a single, seemingly rambling sentence that goes on longer than it normally would due to the use of connections that could have been removed easily from here.

The choice of keeping in the connections here shows that the author wanted the lines to have a seeming rambling quality to them as they go on and on without stopping by the devices that could be used here.

Write me a paper on argument that tend to appeal to emotion
NARA [144]
Appeal to emotion or argumentum ad passiones or appeal to feels is a logical fallacy characterized by the manipulation of the recipient's emotions in order to win an argument, especially in the absence of factual evidence.[1] This kind of appeal to emotion is a type of red herring and encompasses several logical fallacies, including appeal to consequences, appeal to fear, appeal to flattery, appeal to pity, appeal to ridicule, appeal to spite, and wishful thinking. Instead of facts, persuasive language is used to develop the foundation of an appeal to emotion-based argument. Thus, the validity of the premises that establish such an argument does not prove to be verifiable.[2] Appeals to emotion are intended to draw visceral feelings from the acquirer of the information. And in turn, the acquirer of the information is intended to be convinced that the statements that were presented in the fallacious argument are true; solely on the basis that the statements may induce emotional stimulation such as fear, pity and joy. Though these emotions may be provoked by an appeal to emotion fallacy, effectively winning the argument, substantial proof of the argument is not offered, and the argument's premises remain invalid.

According ti beatty, what does it take to keep people happy and occupied in Fahrenheit 451?
Dominik [7]

Answer: The kind of happiness that Beatty is espousing (in Ray Bradbury's “Fahrenheit 451”), when he says that "We're the happiness boys, the Dixie Duo" is an unfruitful pseudo-happiness that seeks to limit a person's thinking. ... This false happiness is accepted by the majority of the populace because they know no better.
