1.  I liked the idea that the people living in that society viewed Harrison as a danger and an antihero because he was disturbing the peace in their society by forcing them remove their handicaps. They think that everyone in their society is equal. However, in reality, it isn't because the people with more power, like the Handicap General, are not wearing any handicaps.
2. I liked how everyone had different prescriptive on the topic and were building on top of each other ideas to continue the conversation.

1. I like the point bought up that the Handicap General doesn't have any handicaps herself and that the government suppresses everyone's else individuality. This shows that the government is clearly has more than everyone else in their "equal" society
2. I like how people agreed and disagreed with each and put up their own point of view to continue the conversation from different angles

Somebody mentioned how people listened and trusted the authorities when they declared Harrison Bergeron was a threat to society since they can't think for themselves, which shows just how much control the government has. I thought it was interesting when someone mentioned that whether Harrison is regarded as a threat or not is ultimately a matter of perspective. The main takeaway from this conversation that I deeply agree with is how equality is unattainable.
I enjoyed listening to this Socratic seminar because of how the conversation seemed to flow. There were no awkward silences and there were always questions and counter-arguments brought up that raised really interesting issues.

1.  Harrison is better than the current government because the government suppresses and destroys everyone's individuality which causes no advancements in society. The government does not have any handicaps and it shows how they are not equal. I like how Agastya mentions how every person naturally strives to accumulate resources for themselves and only to benefit themselves.
2. I liked how everyone built off each other's ideas/ comments

1. I liked how one student said how Harrison would seem like a danger to the people in the society since he appeared as dangerous and crazy. But, he would seem like a hero to the readers because they can see that he is trying to get rid of the handicaps that were limiting the people.
2. I liked how everyone had different views and perspectives that they shared. It was interesting to hear those various opinions and realize how things could be seen/viewed.

1. Harrison is better than the current government because the current one destroys individuality and freedom, which is the point of life.
2. I like how people disagreed and agreed with each other and everyone had something different to say.

1. Competition is necessary for the society to advance. Also, equality is necessary but to a certain extent. Everyone should be given equal opportunities, but no one should be punished for being naturally gifted, or for working hard to get to the spot that they are at. Also rather making everyone equal, we should use everyone's strengths to the society's advantage. Everyone is special in their own way.
2. I liked how people disagreed with others, because this let everyone see the problem for different point of views.

1. part of being a hero is being respected and being idolized but everyone thought Harrison was a danger
2. I liked how everyone was trying to add to the conversation even though this was new for most people

1. Harrison had the right intentions to free everyone, but went at it the wrong way and ended up putting people in more danger. He also had a sort of "god" mentality because of the amount of handicaps placed on him
2. I liked how everyone was able to express their opinions and inspire other responses

1. Competition is necessary to improve society and allow others to strive to become something better, even if it means others are at a disadvantage
2. I liked how there was variety in each response and wasn't only everyone agreeing.

I thought the idea that enforced equality is to a point a societal suppressant, and the equality the government is attempting to attain is unattainable.
I liked how the ideas got built upon by the others

# data[].attributes.body
1. I liked the idea that the society created to make everyone equal actually deprives people of freedom and makes their lives harder.
2. I liked how people could share their opinion and hear someone with another point of view.

1. In the short story, equality cannot be achieved (some people get more weights than others)
2. I liked how in the discussion the group did not talk over each other.

I liked when Albert mentioned the distinction between equality of outcome and opportunity. People should have the same responsibilities and opportunity from the get go, but it’s not justified to try to equalize outcomes.

I liked the way everyone built on top of every one else’s comments

A lot of the characters are very forgetful sort of represents how authoritative governments try to control information through restriction of speech or restriction of media.

I liked how everyone compared and contrasted with each other.

1. When handicapping smarter people, you won't see innovation.
Won't have people that are different so it will be difficult to choose people for jobs.
Harrison realized that since he had so many handicaps, he was better. This caused him to want to become the emperor.
Opposite of Lord of the Flies. Controlled vs no rules.
2. I liked how it wasn't always the same person answering.

The handicaps actually make the more gifted worse than the less gifted
Harrison is a Representation of resilience to the government
The "dark ages" for them is right now for us.
The government does not allow individuality, which means people cant increase their talent in particular fields.  This means people will be chosen randomly, which is unfair.

They brought up points I didn't even think of!
