- appetizer 10y agoBrave New World is widely considered a dystopia, but it is an introspection and satire on existing societies, which for many people actually are dystopias. This is a separation from stories that focus on the post-apocalyptic aspects primarily to create the genre of "scifi dystopia". Therefore, viewing Brave New World as an introspection only leaves the parts of the society that I like as the part to evaluate to see an ideal segment of society, colloquially called a utopia: - I want to be at the top of the pyramid society - I want there to be no consequences for promiscuity - I want a calming mind altering drug that has no side effects - I want peace and stability to focus on my intellectual tasks Brave New World accomplishes that.
