They all have certain things wrong with society today in common. They suggest that we are technology too much and we should start using for other skills then looking at memes all day.

All three of them have the evolution of knowledge in common. They critique us about our growth in technology and how it has majorly changed our society.

The similarities of the three is that theta re showing some sort of progression or problem I’m the way the world has become.that everyone is absorbed around technology and the books have been less and less

This picture, quote and screenshot symbolize that our society has turned into a technological society. People have a hard time looking up from their device and at things that are going on around them. They are so focused on their phones.

Keller

10/15/2020 01:16:02 pm

That is true.

Tia Matthews

10/15/2020 01:17:19 pm

I agree that technology is a big thing

Riley Jones

10/15/2020 01:17:39 pm

This is true

Michael Gebhardt

10/15/2020 01:18:42 pm

I also think we should be more aware of the world around us.

Anika

10/15/2020 01:22:05 pm

I agree

Keller

Those are all connected by knowledge and how they are applied.With all the knowledge of the world at our fingertips it makes it extremely easy to accomplish anything. Those have our society at an ease compared to the past years making life easier.

Cayden Logan

You worded that nicely

Andrew Sessions

These pictures critique our society today because it’s basically saying we have devolved into a lacy group of people that could be doing more.

Riley

10/15/2020 01:17:32 pm

We kind of have become lazy.

Chloie

The quote means that if you distract someone or give a book bad reviews people won’t read it. The picture shows the evolution of man and how we went from working hard to not working hard. And the screenshot shows that we have so much information but we do t use it in the right ways. The similarities are basically that the internet sucks.

Riley

10/15/2020 01:15:47 pm

All three are saying that we are starting to digress from the potentials that we have. They say that we are starting to throw away are culture and going back to are old ways.

Shayla

10/15/2020 01:18:24 pm

I like how you said this.

Tia Matthews

The quote is meaning you don’t have to destroy people’s hard work, there are other ways to change things. The picture is showing how we could of evolved and what we are turning into. The screenshot I would explain By pointing and saying food at a restaurant or fast food place and they would be so confused. The similarities between the three are that they all have something to do with the past.

Audrey

10/15/2020 01:19:33 pm

I agree that there are different ways to change things.

Audrey

10/15/2020 01:16:50 pm

The quote means you don't have to destroy knowledge for people to forget just get them to walk away from it. The picture and screenshot would potentially mean that we evolved from knowing next to nothing to knowing all of this knowledge that we just ignore so we are forgetting these basic concepts.

That’s really interesting

The meaning of the pictures is showing that we have evolved physically and technologically but a lot of times we don’t use our advancements in the way we should. The three are similar because they all say we should be better than we used to be in the past but we really aren’t and that’s also how they are critiquing society.

Riley

10/15/2020 01:18:41 pm

I agree with your first sentence.

Sara Deschaine

10/15/2020 01:17:58 pm

I think the quotes is false I think we can destroy our own culture without the help of burning books. The quote, picture and the screenshot are all similar because it is kind of talking about the life before. If we had to explain everything from a long time ago to now a days it would be super hard. Life has changed a lot.

Piper

10/15/2020 01:18:46 pm

I agree!

Andrew Sessions

10/15/2020 01:21:15 pm

I like how you put it.

Anika

They are making it look like we are growing into people who have no abilty for work. they make it look like we relying on technology to do things nowadays

Piper

Devices and technology have ruined our culture. Books are an important part of our history and without them we are losing who we are. And letting others thoughts and negative words that people are saying about each other control our society.

Cayden Logan

10/15/2020 01:19:22 pm

They share progression and symbolism. People are reading paper books less and less as time moves on.

Andrew Sessions

10/15/2020 01:20:16 pm

All these things have to do with the evolution of our culture. The picture shows the evolution of humans, the screenshot shows how weird it would be for someone from the 1950s to see a modern phone, and the quote shows that we shouldn’t destroy knowledge. These things show how much things have changed from the past to now.

Haylee

10/15/2020 01:23:53 pm

The picture represents that technology has become a big part of our life’s and that we get distracted and not active like we were in the past. Also that we have our heads in our technology.

Kali

If people stopped reading they wouldn't gain any knowledge and then they would not change so culture would not grow and develop. The picture states that over time people people have grown stronger and stronger and now we are starting to get lazy and not getting stronger mentally or physically.the comment is saying that we have all the resources in the world and we rarely ever use them for something that matters.
