Bonjour, quelqu'un peut me traduire ça svp ? merci beaucoup bonne journée This is the heart of Gilead, where the war cannot intrude except on television. Where the edges are we aren’t sure, they vary, according to the attacks and counterattacks; but this is the centre, where nothing moves. The Republic of Gilead, said Aunt Lydia, knows no bounds. Gilead is within you. Doctors lived here once, lawyers, university professors. There are no lawyers any more, and the university is closed. Luke and I used to walk together, sometimes, along these streets. We used to talk about buying a house like one of these, an old big house, fixing it up. We would have a garden, swings for the children. We would have children. Although we knew it wasn’t too likely we could ever afford it, it was something to talk about, a game for Sundays. Such freedom now seems almost weightless. We turn the corner onto a main street, where there’s more traffic. Cars go by, black most of them, some grey and brown. There are other women with baskets, some in red, some in the dull green of the Marthas, some in the striped dresses, red and blue and green and cheap and skimpy, that mark the women of the poorer men. Econowives, they’re called. These women are not divided into functions. They have to do everything; if they can. Sometimes there is a woman all in black, a widow. There used to be more of them, but they seem to be diminishing. You don’t see the Commanders’ Wives on the sidewalks. Only in cars. The sidewalks here are cement. Like a child, I avoid stepping on the cracks. I’m remembering my feet on these sidewalks, in the time before, and what I used to wear on them. Sometimes it was shoes for running, with cushioned soles and breathing holes, and stars of fluorescent fabric that reflected light in the darkness. Though I never ran at night; and in the daytime, only beside well-frequented roads. Women were not protected then. I remember the rules, rules that were never spelled out but that every woman knew: don’t open your door to a stranger, even if he says he is the police. Make him slide his ID under the door. Don’t stop on the road to help a motorist pretending to be in trouble. Keep the locks on and keep going. If anyone whistles, don’t turn to look. Don’t go into a laundromat, by yourself, at night. I think about laundromats. What I wore to them: shorts, jeans, jogging pants. What I put into them: my own clothes, my own soap, my own money, money I had earned myself. I think about having such control. Now we walk along the same street, in red pairs, and no man shouts obscenities at us, speaks to us, touches us. No one whistles. There is more than one kind of freedom, said Aunt Lydia. Freedom to and freedom from. In the days of anarchy, it was freedom to. Now you are being given freedom from. Don’t underrate it.

Bonjour y a t-il des erreurs ? merci ! We have two documents, an extract of a black mirror, episode 1 season 3, which is called nosedive as well as an extract of a video where China ranks «good» and «bad» citizens with social credit system What is thought control? Thought control is a manipulative tactic used in many areas of life. It is a danger, because it imposes particular ways of thinking as being right and others as being wrong. In the black mirror series, have understood that technology, can lead us to a dystopian future Why? Because we almost all seek to be appreciated and gave an image that is not us! Social media, smartphones and ratings are all very present in our everyday life We try to make us believe that the more different we are, the better we will be, yet they control our thinking so that precisely, we look like the other Indeed, we are not free to do what we want Though the tech described in Nosedive is already accessible, the social rating system in Nosedive is still far from becoming a reality. For example, China’s social credit system is chilling. Is the life we live in maybe dystopia? In china, everyone wants to be a good citizen in order to be recognized, society can make them do what it wants, the problem is that everyone will have the same way of thinking However, people are blinded by the fact of being advantaged that they forget their rights! The two documents have in common: the subject of the thought control To conclude, the society is manipulative, she controls our thoughts and we are heading straight for a dystopian future In china, they have a facility to do things to citizens without them realizing it, and Lacie pound in black mirror proves that we want to be like everyone else, we no longer have our own opinion
