- Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World is a 1932 dystopian novel set in a futuristic "World State" where human beings are mass-produced in laboratories, rigidly divided into intellectual castes, and conditioned to value mindless consumerism, promiscuity, and instant gratification over freedom, art, and deep emotion.
- I am familiar that some of these books where turned into movies , but I never seen or read the books or seen the movies

- Society once allowed different opinions whereas now you have to agree with the majority or risk beig 'cancelled.' This makes people self-censor and thus stifles free speech
