What the author seems to be trying to say here is that there is always somebody that will be unhappy with what a leader has to say. 

In a healthy society, there are always opposing views that are designed to be discussed and debated at length. The eternal problem is that unfortunately, you can't please everybody.

Political correctness is a very controversial subject in that some people feel limited and unable to express views that may cause harm and damage to others. They claim that society holds them back from speaking their mind. It is very difficult to apply one definition to this concept as a whole because it is definitely influenced by your position on the matter.

It seems here that the question is designed to include your own analysis and a bit of your opinion, so be sure to add this as well as factual and generalized information.

Answer:

The main message of this passage is that even though we might feel like there is silence, there is always our thoughts that aren't quiet.

Explanation:

When Jack London explains the setting as " the lone and silent land," it shows that there is really nothing that could cause harm to the character. As London goes on in the passage, he begins to describe " the hunting cries..." and how "they sent surges of fear through the toiling dogs." This represents the thoughts of everyday people and the fear of the unknown. London then goes on to say " I wisht they'd strike game somewheres, an' go away an' leave us alone." "They do get on the nerves horrible." These quotes represent the racing thoughts of the two characters, Bill and Henry, and how, even in the silence of the night, their thoughts are still heard loud and clear in their heads about the possible creatures that lurk in the dark.

Imagine you wanted to convince an uninformed person to take a political position that is the same as yours. What issue would you
Delvig [45]
I say talk about economic policy. Argue for a position you believe in (be it Socialism, Laissez-Faire Capitalism, or whatever). I would start by using a anecdote that described the issue using the negative consequences of embracing the other perspective, immediately tarnishing the person's first impression of the opposite ideology. Then, I would involve logos by saying things like "just think about it, and you'll realize it makes perfect sense" and explaining my position as though it were a formula. Ethos would come into the picture when I mention the opinions of professionals and scholars who I've hand=picked to agree with me on the topic. Pathos has already been used in the form of the beginning anecdote, a "sob story" so to speak.
Hope that I helped!
