Guy's Lord Of The Flies Isn't Some Emo "everyone Is Evil And Deep Down We All Want Violence" Story It's

guy's lord of the flies isn't some emo "everyone is evil and deep down we all want violence" story it's about human greed !!!!!! and i know this might sound contradictory but it's specifically focused on the greed for power that SOME people crave !!!! the sort of greed that causes WAR because lord of the flies isn't about a bunch of kids becoming feral because "oh humans deep down are cruel and violent" it's about placing CHILDREN who have not yet unlearned childhood greediness on an isolated island after having had war-time ideology (World Wars 2 AND 3) instilled in them for most of their lives !!!!!!! these kids grew up in war times, they were trying to escape a WAR ZONE on the plane !!!!!! this book was written in 1954 only NINE YEARS after World War 2 !!!!!!!!!!!! lord of the flies is a criticism of war and the hunger for power and resources that fuels it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
