sample answer from palto


King’s speech is from the point of view of a fellow African American who seeks civil rights and will not rest until the African American community achieves equal rights in the United States, but only through nonviolent methods. He states that African Americans will keep striving for freedom, but at the same time, he encourages the African American community to not indulge in any wrong or violent deeds. Malcolm X also attempts to encourage the African American community to revolt against destructive inequality, but he advocates using force and violence when necessary. His words “the ballot or the bullet” are meant to serve as an ultimatum to the government. If African Americans are not allowed to vote, then they may turn to violence to achieve their goals.

ddd [48]

You forgot to mention that this question is about the article "The Flight from Conversation".

Answer:

With the use of oxymoron, Turkle meant that we live constantly alone, but always in "contact" with the people we care about through technology. This statement influences the entire article showing how this ability is affecting our personal relationships.

Explanation:

The article shows how technology has enabled an atificial and shallow form of community. This is because technology allows us to talk to anyone, anywhere in the world, however, this communication does not form bonds and we are always alone.

However, we are alone in a collective way, since all people use this same type of communication. This results in the creation of large groups, which in fact do not exist, are not substantial. As the author of the article says, technology makes us come "a tribe of one."
