I agree - Huxley was practically a prophet. We are heading for such a “Brave New World” - and like so many on “Soma” - the sheep are more than happy to ignore the ugly underbelly.
As I understand it, The Hunger Games is a popular book series among the current generation. The books depict the heroic individual against the state.
Most people get squirmy when they see sci-fi flicks like Soylent Green, The Giver, Hunger Games and Brave New World

As they build these nirvanas they are repulsed when confronted by it on the big screen. Another reason why reasoning with them is futile.
