"But anyways here's what I'm trying to tell you: They did something to your brain-our brain- and that's why this letter may seem kind of weird to you. we (that's "we" as in us out in the New Smoke, not "we" as in you and me) don't know exactly how it work, but we are pretty sure that something happens to everyone who has the operation. when they make you pretty, they also add lesions to your brain. It makes you different and not in a good way. Look in the mirror, Tally. If you're pretty you've got them" (89)
Using technology to totally change someone even their mind is creating a total dystopian society. The person who has the power and technology is given to much control over other people. How could anyone think this is okay? Or are all of them just brainwashed to think that way... When technology is used to create total conformity in a society then it is truly imperfect but to others who do not know the truth they believe it is then perfect. Also I feel bad for Tally how can you even wrap your mind around this? Its so complex and difficult to understand, reading a letter from yourself that you do not even remember writing. I think I would be so freaked out in that situation its not even funny. It also just freaks me out how you can just use technology to the level to make someone forget everything. I hope that in this world that we would never use technology to control a person like that...
