For Titus believes that the feed is a technological improvement made for the good of mankind whereas, Violet believes the ‘feed’ is a manipulative force, controlling all aspects of society, and is potentially harmful.

Violet, having received her ‘feed’ later in life, views the world rather guilelessly, differing from Titus. This is spurred by his meeting with a beautiful young girl about his age, who proves to be the catalyst for the change. Fortunately there is hope, and the arrogant, ignorant character of Titus changes. Anderson carefully placed this sense of hopelessness in Titus’ character he wants us to see Titus as “the image” of the futuristic downfall of America. But we are getting side-tracked for they (the people in Feed) chose to make this change and we can always change this in our world.

“And we could hear the feed pouring in on us now, all of it, all of the feed net, and we could feel our favourites.” Furthermore, we see this as an epitome of our teenaged boys nowadays we imagine today’s teenagers to illustrate this. As we can see, Titus is fairly careless – he takes advantage of the feed, misuses it, and is happy about it, full stop. Being influenced under the feed, him and friends are fairly callous, not giving a damn about anything, living a life of naivety gullibly being lured under the feed, he is “attuned” to the mainstream world, not stopping to think and discover the real truth. The narrator of Feed, Titus, is an egocentric, bored, illiterate teenager who comes from a wealthy family.

In putting Titus as main character and narrator, he wants us to see the change in Violet he wants us to see that someone who was initially “sucked in” by the feed changes, under the influence of Violet. This is the view Anderson wants us to see. Fortunately, Titus’ character changes, and we see the beautiful, intelligent Violet, who proves to be catalyst for his change. First person narrator Titus is a typical teenaged boy who always tries to “fit-in” he goes to parties, takes drugs, and all the other labels we as a society label teenagers nowadays. The teenagers in this world are equipped with computers in their brains called ‘feeds’. In this world, human beings are thought of as humans first, and second, people, if at all. Anderson’s Feed presents an alarming vision of a dystopian world where technology has evolved to a point making everything and everyone dumber. Explain what you learned from reading about him/her.
