Technological threats and triumphs

In this unit, we discussed how technological advances can be an advantage and a disadvantage to society. The advantages being how society is able to access new and improved technology but during that usage morality and ethics come into question as society starts to practice the indoctrination, social stratification, discrimination, exploitation. The connection to NLMG helped me understand the similarity of the book to modern-day societal issues and as we discussed in one of our discussions, the post-colonial theory is one of the bases that started discriminatory practices.
