To portray the 1950s American society as a blunt character which lacks identity when aiming for equality. The static characters show degressive growth in society.

Explanation

The character George Bergeron is from 'Harrison Bergeron' taken from Kurt Vonnegut's collection of short stories.

Here Vonnegut tries to show an imaginative world where every people are compelled to be equal by making them average.
