Entry 4 -- Ender's Game

Are there are any current situations in the world that relate to the novel? what are they, and how do they relate? does the novel shed any light on how current situations could be resolved or "fixed"?

The novel doesn't relate to the current situations much, because the setting of this noble is the future world, and has a lot of mechanical devices that are not currently functioning in this current world. But there is one thing that relate to the current world: there are bullies in every place in world. In Ender's Game, Ender got bullied by other students wherever he went, and he realized that there are no places without bullies. In the real world, there are bullies everywhere. I have seen bullies wherever I went, just like Ender in the novel. The novel never showed how it can be resolved, but it suggested us to act just perfectly normal. Ender was treated as a special child in his school, and that caused the other students to bully over him. So, you'd better be perfectly normal in order to survive from the bullies.
