Read the fable and use supporting evidence from the story to identify its theme. Answer in a minimum of three complete sentences

.
One fine day in winter some Ants were busy drying their store of corn, which had got rather damp during a long spell of rain. Presently up came a Grasshopper and begged them to spare her a few grains, "For," she said, "I'm simply starving." The Ants stopped work for a moment, though this was against their principles. "May we ask," said they, "what you were doing with yourself all last summer? Why didn't you collect a store of food for the winter?" "The fact is," replied the Grasshopper, "I was so busy singing that I hadn't the time." "If you spent the summer singing," replied the Ants, "you can't do better than spend the winter dancing." And they chuckled and went on with their work.

The theme of this short fable is to always be prepared. In the tale, the Grasshopper asks for help but the ants won't help because they know he should have prepared for winter instead of singing all summer. Being prepared is what the story is about especially when the ants tell the Grasshopper to 'spend the winter dancing' instead of helping him.

What is totalitarian propaganda and how can it control<br> enlightened people
mart [117]

Totalitarian Propaganda can controlled well educated people by conveying the regimes beliefs, almost forcing it down their subjects throats.

So when it works it usually shows an "Evil" or "Enemy" of the state, and obviously without proper methods of evaluating the truth decent people will believe it for example look at the DPRK or Iran.
