Harrisonâs handicaps â which he sheds â are a symbol of â
a) the oppressions of a flawed government
b) his insecurities about his own abilities
c) his apathetic family and friends
d) harrisonâs aptitude making him worthy of his title

I believe the best answer is A) The oppressions of a flawed government.

Explanation:

Harrison Bergeron is a short story by author Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. The story is set in the year 2081, in the US. The government has tried to promote equality between all people, but has failed greatly. Instead of working on people's self-esteem and sense of self-worth, instead of giving the least advantaged ones better opportunities or the tools they need to perform better, the government has made the strangest choice. It has chosen to handicap those who originally had no flaws. Harrison, for instance, has astonishing looks and intelligence. He is tall, strong, handsome, intellectually superior and, for those reasons, is forced to wear all sorts of handicappers to make him average like everyone else - weights, teeth caps, earphones, heavy spectacles, a red rubber ball on his nose, and some head gear.

As we can see, the flawed government chose a drastic and unintelligent approach to equality.

gatsby's clothes have a symbolic meaning, as the use of colour and fabric in his clothing demonstrates his hope, dreams, and wealth. gatsby's clothing symbolizes his wealth through his torn shirt, his silver and gold suit, and his english shirts.

- "these rights are natural and god-given to all men equally." (i disagree cuz i kind of think it's 'a' but who knows.)
