"Till at last the child's mind is these suggestions, and the sum of the suggestions is the child's mind . . . The adult's mind too - all his life long . . . But all these suggestions are our suggestions!" (Huxley 28-29).
Scientific and technological advancements do not benefit humanity because hypnopaedia, or sleep teaching, is being used to to manipulate the population to follow the government's wishes. From birth, children are conditioned to follow certain rules and behave a certain way. This practice takes away all individuality and gives the government total control over the population. Not only does this practice limit humanity's individuality and free will, but it also breeds hatred. Children are conditioned to only like those in their own caste. For example, the betas are taught that the alphas work too hard, betas are the best, and the gammaas, deltas, and epsilons are stupid. While the government believes that hypnopaedia is beneficial to society because it makes the population easy to control, it is hurting humanity, as it limits them and does not allow them to grow.
