PETA Advertisement

Following the holidays, an advertisement was recently produced by PETA (People for Ethical Treatment of Animals) showing how animals, which are widely gifted around the world during Christmas season, are not to be treated as products. This is because often times the animal is given to someone who is unable to take care of it, or they just don't want it period. This ad contained inspiring Christmas music in the background, conveying feelings of warmth, and then the camera pans to a fake illuminated dog who is tied to a pole on the side of the highway. It causes the audience to realize that this is an issue, because it definitely had that effect on me. Not only can it spread awareness, but it may actually spark one's failed conscious. I believe this ad will be successful because of the placement. Since it has been placed right before the holiday season, people are more in their senses about giving and taking. I think without little reminders like such, there would be less consideration toward the rights of animals, and ethics in general.

Politics and the English language

I agree with Orwell on the belief that language is a natural growth and that we shape it for our own purposes. For instance, since I am at an advantage where I have been put into harder classes that challenge me to create arguments that use intelligent sounding words, and which do in fact have intelligent meanings, I use them to my benefit to prove my self right in an argument with my friends in less challenging classes. The meanings they have behind them are complex and are difficult for my other friends to retort successfully. Playing the instrument of language, I am able to bend the meanings of them for my own selfish purposes. As time goes by, my language grows and allows me to have more sophisticated responses to situations that require me to prove myself or to prove others wrong.
