You forgot to mention that the government must outlaw something. Like love, feelings or coffee.

We all know what an evil dictator's weakness is.

Plucky teenagers and love triangles

[ally]

But why have a love triangle when you could have a love dodecahedron?

Remember, once defeating the evil regime the main characters should preferably become the new rulers, regardless of whether or not they have displayed actual leadership skills and responsibilities.

I really hate romance in dystopian novels. I came to read about dying societies, not teenage drama.

[JohnWilliamNowak]

There's any number of books written about dystopias by people who lived in police states.
Guess what? A lot of them are comedies.
I think it was in Moscow 2042 that Vladimir Nikolayevich Voinovich had a character say he couldn't believe in Orwell's 1984, because none of the characters cracked jokes about Big Brother the way they did about Stalin.

What I really like about “The Giver” by Lois Lowry is that before meeting the giver the society is described so well it almost feels like a just and normal working society, we see it just like Jonas does.However after the memories are given we slowly see with Jonas just how corrupt the community is.

I love how the "stereotypical villain" thinks Undertale is overrated

[mbufton]

I kind of want to see a dystopia novel from the perspective of some high ranking government official who got bored of the whole dystopia thing and is discretely aiding a resistance movement, not out of any altruism, but because they think it'll be exciting.

"we don't want our dystopian novel to actually be about thinking for yourself, after all. that would be double plus un-good."
LOL

Wait a minute, if in the hunger games district 11 is a coal mine, and they show later that the Capitol runs off of hydrostatic power, WHATS THE POINT IN A COAL MINE?!

I have been watching this videos all day long, and I swear: If I hear LOVE TRIANGLE one more time I am going to create a dystopian world where love triangles are illegal

[PhantomLantern]

Half your videos are just colossal shots fired at Divergent.

"He loved big brother" reference had e dying.

As a novice writer hoping to write some original novels, I'm extremely glad I've found this channel.

Dystopia: **takes over entire planet**

Comic relief character: *_Z A P P E R S_*

This video just described the Hunger Games and Divergent

[assman]

These videos describe every single wattpad book ever made.

[rosettacole]

And while we're secretly hating on Hunger Games, lets have the main character be starving yet not underweight and very pretty

[EzioAltairist]

The protagonist should also be smart, so all the alpha males could fall in love and be ignored by her, while she prefers to date the weak anti-social but smart guy who gets bullied by the alpha males.
