In this debate it is stated that technology has created equality in the society and I am into favor of this argument as the points that are discussed by both the team members are absolutely true. The Internet/technology has become increasingly significant as time has passed, and the biggest advantage or benefit of the technology that we all can possess now is the social media platforms. It has made equality in the society in several aspects and reduces the communication gap between the people. It has allowed people to get connect with people throughout world due to globalization. People love to get connect and chat with strangers besides to see their castes, religion and society as they want to know about their communities more and share their culture. It shows the equalities between the people of different culture, castes, race, religion is increasing through these digital platforms like Instagram, Facebook, YouTube etc. Moreover, it has provided the e-learning opportunities to those students who cannot able to visit to different cities and states for their higher education.
There are several towns and villages existed in the world that do not have higher education and medical facilities but the technology and internet has made it possible now for the students of villages to get higher education and makes their dream true. Apart from this now patients can consult to the doctors through online applications so that they can get health care benefits and keep their families free from any kind of health issues. Technology has made advancement in the transportation sector with this one can cover the huge kilometers of distance in hours. Many NGOs have started online applications in order to support the poor, disabled and needy homeless people.
They also create a new society of the needy people where they all share the equal platform and feel love to stay together. It also does not make them to feel alone and depressed in the world of selfish people who neglect them. Also, government is also eliminating the discriminations from the society with this technology by launching the scheme #ONE LAPTOP PER CHILD to spread the education and make the youth educated. Moreover, now lack people, aboriginals and women can fight against the discrimination freely through the support of these digital platforms and technology. Thus, it can be stated that it is the technology that has made several transformations in the society and make them equal.
