While Offred was in the the Red Center for becoming a Handmaiden, all other Handmaidens in training were to talk about their sins in front of everyone. Janine (Ofwarren), had the unfortune to confess her sin which was rape. And for that, all of the girls there were to judge her and tell her it was her own fault that she was raped to begin with. Is it really? Is it the women's fault that she was raped from the start?
Judge who said rape victim didnt put up a fight later apologized.
According to that article, “If someone doesn’t want to have sexual intercourse, the body shuts down. The body will not permit that to happen unless a lot of damage in inflicted, and we heard nothing about that in this case.
"That tells me that the victim in this case, although she wasn’t necessarily willing, she didn’t put up a fight,” the judge said."
Now, I don't know about you but that to me sounds like a bunch of bullcrap.
The imperfect world in reality, the perfect world in our heads. My heart of a Dystopian burns with passion to know more of other worlds than our society that we know.

Children Of Men Reflection
I'm a movie freak from top to bottom. And sometimes I tend to miss out on what was the whole point or overall gist of the movies. Symbolism sort of wacks me off a bit. So I tank (yes, this was intentional mispelingig) Mrs. Saunders for opening my eyes to what those symbolisms were.
What interested me the most was that scene where Theo took Kee and her caretaker to the abandoned playground. Where Kee's caretaker mentioned that the world needed the laughter of children.
She is not wrong by a long shot.
The world needs the carefree of youth to brighten our worries. The problem in that society was that they lost something to protect. To censor the young from the terrors of what the world can bring at such tender ages. The absence of innocence leads to malice, cold, humorless world.

"Hi there! I see your quite the shopper!"
The Feed in my perspective any kind of device receiving information that is constantly being updated based off on your interests and such.
How I use my 'Feed' is through daily subscription emails from Hot Topic, Wet Seal, Forever 21, Marshalls and Charlotte Rouse. I know I'm not helping the female race much with being known as a complete shopaholic, but it is what it is.
Another thing I would have on my Feed is Facebook and DeviantArt, updating constantly.

1984 Discussion
"Who cares?" she said impatiently. "It's always one bloody war after another, and one knows the news is all lies anyways". -1984 (Pg. 154) by George Orwell

"Regular Show" to 1984
In the book 1984 by George Orwell, the children in his dystopian world are all corrupted with the idea that being Spies is cool and most disturbing fantasy in wanting to see public executions of enemines and traitors. The way that society exposes such extreme situations to children at very young ages is similar to ours.
Such as the cartoon material that television channels show-
Adult Jokes in "Regular Show" (Season 1)
To think that the younger generation cartoon shows stooped this low.. *facepalm*
I have no legit article or source to back this up (pretty much the video) but I'm sure everyone can agree that this is a little too much..
I'm all for against censorship and all but still, I believe the kids' shows these days have crossed the borderline of TMI.

Restrictions in my Dystopian World
In a Dystopian World where society thought best to restrict the gifted and left alone those with little to offer in our reality.
Restricted the genius by brain washing them with horrid television screenings--Jersey Shore.
Restricted the genius by brain washing them with horrid television screenings--Jersey Shore.
Restricted the thinkers by having them do something with their hands and not enough time to think and just do. Farming, factories, workshops, community service, etc.
Restricted the ones gifted with immense strength and agility by having them strap down and fed junk food 'til they are the size of an average woman and man.
Restricted the ones who like to speak-enough passion to start a revolt-drug them with medication that mellows them out-morphine, iodine, etc.
I believe society may find me as a threat, a dangerous thinker, strength to take down two grown men and more if circumstances calls for desperation, an IQ above average, and not to mention fiery passion.
So what will happen to people like me would be heavy monitoring, daily medication, and unfortuantly required to watch Big Ang reality show 'til I keel over and submit loyalty to higher ups and go back to normal handicaps for people like me.

Influencers and The Influencees
I believe there is some benefit to propagandas when they are genuine and make it top priority in today's world. Such as stop drinking, smoking, drugs, and violence.
However, I do not agree with influencing younger people into buying things that are extremely expensive and they have the need to just get it because it's the new fancy trend. Or getting involved in things that just appear cool on television.

"Linked Feelings"
My vision of a perfect world is when people can rely on people.
When someone can trust a stranger to watch his/her car while they run to the restroom. When someone stops teenagers from throwing out profanities to a homeless or old person.
My vision is when people can understand one another through raw emotions alone. I guess you can say I wish for a world more like in the book series "Chaos Walking" by Patrick Ness.
The idea alone is truly phenomenal on his part where people can truly understand how they are feeling by some unique "disease". And once they know how much the other person is hurting or is very happy, can they really begin to comprehend their next phase of actions.
Emotions alone are very complex and are in a total different field beyond my psychological expertise. However, if there is such a thing as knowing how one's emotions are into play, than I believe the world has finally put their big boy's shorts on. Moving on to curing the incurable and helping the hopeless.
If I have to describe my vision in just two words it would be...
"Linked Feelings".
