We Are Already Living In A Brave New World! - Huxley's Warning To The World

Technology and the endless supply of stimulating yet morally degrading entertainment that flows from it is creating a passive, ignorant and spiritually crippled population uninterested in resisting the implementation of its political chains
Is it too late to turn back the forces of technocracy and the scientific dictatorship?

In the 21st century, how far away are we from Huxley’s dystopian vision of the future?

“It seems to me that the nature of the ultimate revolution with which we are now faced is precisely this: That we are in the process of developing a whole series of techniques which will enable the controlling oligarchy who have always existed and will always exist to get people to love their servitude.” 

- Aldous Huxley, interview at University of California Berkeley (1962)
