  1. Hello today I'd be making a modern connection to the
  2. novel. Lord of the flies.
  3. The theme novel is what is the constant internal battle
  4. between the pursuit of civilization and descend into savagery that
  5. the boys had.
  6. William Golding wrote about a book about her boys that
  7. are stranded on an island without any adult supervision but
  8. themselves. It is up to them what rules they're going
  9. to follow during their time on the island.
  10. The boys are in a dilemma figuring out if instincts
  11. a savagery will take over the pursuit of civilization, a
  12. great example would be how Covid has changed the perspective
  13. of life for a lot of people, two began when
  14. Covid has just started.
  15. People were really following the rules quarantining and now living
  16. their homes for weeks.
  17. Then after a little people started to become very selfish
  18. and they started buying out all the essential stuff like
  19. the toilet paper in the board of the flies.
  20. Jack, the leader of the choir has a selfish desire
  21. for power with simple arrogance.
  22. Jack said I ought to be chief because I am
  23. chapter choir ist and head boy, I can sing C
  24. Sharp. This example shows how Jack felt as if he
  25. was much more better for the role whereas he deserved
  26. it. And this is what a lot of people during
  27. the beginning of the pandemic felt when they were buying
  28. out all the essential stuff, not leaving anything for the
  29. other person because they felt as if they needed a
  30. more and not their neighbor.
  31. Secondly after a while people stopped following the rules and
  32. started partying, flying out of the country and etcetera which
  33. is similar to what happened when Jack stopped listening to
  34. ralph. Most importantly the boys instinctive savagery took over them
  35. when they murdered the pregnant pig Simon and then Peggy
  36. these parts of the novel showed the reader how fast
  37. a morally good person can change when they have some
  38. sort of authority on the other.
  39. Now, unfortunately, the connection that I have came up today
  40. is the same thing has happened in real life because
  41. of covid, coronavirus has become a great reason for people
  42. to bring out their violent and various sides.
  43. Multiple asian people ranging from being seniors to Children, are
  44. physically and mental victims of xenophobia because of coronavirus.
  45. A very unfortunate example will be from here from Canada
  46. in april of last year, in Vancouver Canada, an elderly
  47. person, asian man was attacked with wild slurs and references
  48. to the coronavirus.
  49. This attack, as I have stated before, is one of
  50. the many Asian hate crimes that were committed because of
  51. COVID-19 people use their vile to science as hide under
  52. the fact that the person they're attacking is Asian, which
  53. is the same exact thing that happened with Simon, who
  54. supposedly was the beast during his murder.
  55. Therefore, in conclusion, unfortunately, some people use their vile desires,
  56. masks as mistakes or reasons for their insensitivity, the battle
  57. between their heads and super egos or notice.
  58. But in the end, the EDS blending and causes colossal
  59. issues that cannot bring back peace and comfort that was
  60. once there Thank.
