Due to vast improvements throughout history, human rights has allowed people to freely speak their ideas and beliefs. Also, the transition from a modernized society to a more virtual society has allowed people to express their ideas more freely and have access to news from all over the world. Thus, people are entitled to their opinion,ideas, and beliefs. However, all expressed ideas have counter arguments for example in religion people might share different views based on their beliefs but they still have the security of their right to maintain their beliefs freely. Since society has took a dip in the virtual side of living, division due to power has strengthened through the use of social media. This has lead society into a dystopia, where control by a higher power is enabled. More over, associations such as the National Basketball Association have the power to enforce regulations on their players to maintain power and rule. For example, in recent years the NBA as enforced a strict dress code where players can no longer wear their desired choice of clothing but instead dress formal when entering and when leaving the stadium. Thus, from this action a dystopian environment is created, players no longer can express themselves freely and if they do they will be punished. Such regulations have caused higher authority over people inhibiting them from freely expressing ideas and beliefs which is completely wrong. People, especially players who are so highly valued, should be allowed the right to freely express themselves on interviews or even when dressing . This is because those who are allowed to freely express themselves are much more comfortable and happier. To every idea, belief, and opinion there is a counter argument. This is ... ... middle of paper ... .... Players are also factors in fighting against dystopian way because it inhibits them to freely be themselves while they are playing and working in a association they worked on their whole life to get into. In other words, its bizarre to see players who are the main value in sports such as basketball, however are still able to be confined due to the authoritative power of the basketball association. Overall, since people depend heavily on social media and television, associations use their power such as imposing dress codes to present their players on television so that viewers can be aware and interested in why the NBA is trying to sell such as tickets to stadiums, clothing, and certain messages. IN result, this has lead society to fall under a dystopia, where everything is controlled by higher authority restricting thus the rights us people were first entitled too.
