Question 6 • ELA 11B-CR

How does Vonnegut use satire to support his opinion that society is dangerously obsessed with equality? Check all that apply.

Answer
A
by proposing a way to correct the problem
B
by exaggerating and distorting reality
C
by creating a dystopian society

Explanation

Vonnegut exaggerates the pursuit of equality by giving people handicaps that prevent anyone from being stronger, smarter, or more capable than others. He places this idea in a dystopian society where enforced equality has become oppressive, showing how dangerous the obsession can be. The story exposes the problem rather than proposing a practical way to correct it.
