feed 2

feed..
first of all i would like to say that who ever wants to rely on a machine for their main source of life... rely that their heart to beat and memories to stay on a machine.. they are insane... cause you would unfortunate if you have to, to live, but if you just want to just for the heck of it, if you chose to you are completely insane. cause really all it takes is for someone to pull the plug...

as efficient as technology is, it is still made so that most of the things we buy would have to be replaced in 6 months. because thats consumerism
it keeps the cycle going

utopia
and the
normal

normal for titus would be things like parties, and people in mal and acting dumb, school TM,mindless thinking and the feed- no resistance..
i think in this part of the book "normal" starts to change a little bit for titus. he starts resisting the feed alittle and he starts looking in at the party and thinking it does look weird. he starts learning more about the unfortunate thing in the world althougt he doesnt like it that much.

but he is not successful resisting the feed

example- buying and chosing an up car.
he chose the one that the feed was sending him...
adding on the the up car

TITUS' STUPIDITY
titus first agrees that he is stupid
but then

"buy tomorrow i would be driving to pick up violet in my own godamn upcar, and suddenly, suddenly, i didnt feel so stupid anymore." -titus..

i think he is still stupid.. surprising how someone can feel less stupid by buying a car.




i think violet is the only one who sees things like it should be "depressing" but extremely truthful

"look at us! you dont have the feed! you are feed! you're feed! you're being eaten! you're raised for food! look at what you've made yourselves!" pointing at quendy "she's a monster! a monster! covered with cuts! she's a creature!"



i looked up pictures of lesions, they are not pretty at all. there is nothing sexy about them... they are horrible.. and in there utopia it okay the be covered with them and whats worst, its okay to do that to yourself. thats kinda depressing
violet sees that time for what is really is "we are in a time a calamity" disaster lose suffering. a time where people loses common sense, where they are destorying the world. cutting tress to make air factories.
and violet seems to be the only one who cares

their normal. titus's link's quendy's marty's calista's and maybe loga's normal is were people feel less dumb if they buy things, partying, going in mal, making out, looking like the latest trends and the people in "oh! wow! thing!" their utopia is filled with temporary pleasure and happiness that slowly is destroying the world.
yep yep their utopia's really really messed up
