utopian vs distopian

Hello beatty here and I just want to say that a dystopia is a the thing that would be better because im always either anoyed or in a bad mood and I dont care really what happens to other people I just follow the rules that the goverment make.

Garrett here I think that a utopia is a better place because erverone gets along my utiopia would focased around sports mostly because i'm a big sports fan also its better because the goverment would not have all the power but be shared like it is today thats what I think would be the best.

Utopian vs. Dystopian


Mildred's vision of a utopia is of the world she presently lives in. She is perfectly fine to live without books, only visiting friends to do the same thing she does at home, which is watch television. When confronted by change, she becomes frightened. For example, when Montag shows Mildred all of the books he has stole, she becomes almost horrified of them. "Mildred backed away as if she were suddenly was confronted by a pack of mice that had come up out of the floor. He could hear her breathing rapidly and her face was paled out and her eyes were fastened wide. She said his name over, twice, three times. Then, moaning, she ran forward, seized a book, and ran toward the kitchen incinerator." What we can see from this is that Mildred is perfectly content living the life that she is, and doesn't want it to change at all costs. In my own opinion, a utopian society wouldn't necessarily be one where everyone was happy. It would be just and fair, but also show mercy to those who deserve it. It would not be close to Mildred’s utopia.

Utopian vs. Dystopian

Clarisse's view on a Utopian society would be where people were able to read books and everyone was able to do what they'd like to do. "I like to smell things, and sometimes stay up all night, walking, and watch the sun rise." (Bradbury, 11). My View on a Utopian society would be some what like Clarisse's view where everyone able to read books and everyone was happy with one another and treated equally.
Montag's Utopia 

Montag's Utopia would be: People could read books and gain knowledge. People would not have walls that talk to them. People would have deep conversations. No one would judge what you do. Kids would go to school to learn.
