704 Padlet #2: Anger, memories, and ignorance. by Simone Sylvester https://padlet.com/ssylvester8/5wdek50hqhswxnqx The people in The Giver seem like they don't question the rules of their society. They have no memory of the past, so how can they? They don't know any better. As Jonas begins to get more memories, he starts to get more angry. Why does Jonas feel this way? How does Jonas' anger connect to the quote "Ignorance is bliss?" SPICY (optional): What things do you personally wish you never knew because it made you angry or caused you pain? en-us 2020-05-06 01:07:45 UTC 2020-05-08 16:29:46 UTC hello@padlet.com asoto75 https://padlet.com/ssylvester8/5wdek50hqhswxnqx/wish/554865412 When Jonas starts to get more memories it starts to make him more angry. He’s like this because he doesn’t like that his society is all the same and he wants to make his own choices. And wants others to make their own choices. Not to have someone make it for him.]]> 2020-05-06 14:16:39 UTC https://padlet.com/ssylvester8/5wdek50hqhswxnqx/wish/554865412 Chris M https://padlet.com/ssylvester8/5wdek50hqhswxnqx/wish/554953517 The more Jonas starts to have more memories, the more it makes him more angrier. He basically wants his own world that he wants and not the world that hes on right now. He wants like his own world because he wants things to be differently than his society that he is in now ]]> 2020-05-06 14:43:31 UTC https://padlet.com/ssylvester8/5wdek50hqhswxnqx/wish/554953517 Juan C: https://padlet.com/ssylvester8/5wdek50hqhswxnqx/wish/555427146 Why I think Jonas feels this way is because he keeps gaining so much power that he needs to lose some and also he needs his mind to calm down and just think of something else. This can connect to the quote "Ignorance is bliss" because he wants to lose memories and by gaining them it is becoming into a habit and also annoying. ]]> 2020-05-06 17:21:09 UTC https://padlet.com/ssylvester8/5wdek50hqhswxnqx/wish/555427146 OrlaFlynn https://padlet.com/ssylvester8/5wdek50hqhswxnqx/wish/555446126 I think Jonas gets more angry when he learns more because he can't believe how much the leaders of the community were hiding from him and he wants others to see, but is frustrated that is family and friends have to miss out on the colors and sun and snow. This connects to the quote, "Ignorance is bliss" because maybe Jonas thinks that he would be happier without knowing how much the leaders of his community are controlling him, and would rather live his regular life than have to deal with the pain of not being able to share his knowledge with others.]]> 2020-05-06 17:28:05 UTC https://padlet.com/ssylvester8/5wdek50hqhswxnqx/wish/555446126 Adriel.G: adrielgarcia https://padlet.com/ssylvester8/5wdek50hqhswxnqx/wish/555474472 I think Jonas was angry because after he learned all these memories, he got upset that his community look nothing like the things he saw in the memories. And that's were the quote ''Ignorance is bliss'' came from.]]> 2020-05-06 17:38:50 UTC https://padlet.com/ssylvester8/5wdek50hqhswxnqx/wish/555474472 I thought this video was very interesting and made me aware of whats going on in the book. https://padlet.com/ssylvester8/5wdek50hqhswxnqx/wish/555494212 2020-05-06 17:46:04 UTC https://padlet.com/ssylvester8/5wdek50hqhswxnqx/wish/555494212 yhayashi2 https://padlet.com/ssylvester8/5wdek50hqhswxnqx/wish/555507615 When Jonas begins to get more memories, he starts to get more angry. Jonas feels this way because he thinks that it is unfair to have everything be the same so that people are unable to make free choices. Jonas' anger connect to the quote "Ignorance is bliss" because everyone who dont know the memory, they don't know all of these pain, and feelings. They don't realize the problem. "A person who done not know about a problem does not worry about it"

And he wishes that he had lived in this really unique and different world where there’s different colors, species, and differences that can be owned by each and wish to live in this wonderful weather and much more.]]> 2020-05-06 18:51:07 UTC https://padlet.com/ssylvester8/5wdek50hqhswxnqx/wish/555653597 Rani https://padlet.com/ssylvester8/5wdek50hqhswxnqx/wish/555753529 I think that the more that Jonas starts to get the memories the angrier he gets because he can't believe how much they were hiding from him]]> 2020-05-06 19:35:03 UTC https://padlet.com/ssylvester8/5wdek50hqhswxnqx/wish/555753529 Jonas feels that way because he didn't like the way he was exposed to the truth and the real things that were happening around him, he thinks people shouldn't be controlled by anyone and they should make their own choices like he wanted to, but he is not allowed to and this caused him to get angry and show his anger.

And he is angry that we changed how beautiful the world was before.
