Which science fiction premise is the best example of irony? a. the desire to improve education leads to a future in which nearly all citizens have advanced degrees. b. the desire to decrease prejudice leads to a future in which "race" no longer exists as a concept. c. the desire to make people safe leads to a future in which everyone is confined to their beds. d. the desire to keep people secure leads to a future in which terrorism has been eradicated.

  C. The desire to make people safe leads to a future in which everyone is confined to their beds.

  We may expect that the desire to make people safe leads to a future with high-tech safety solutions, where the ideal safety plus freedom happens. For the future we always expect advancements.

  In this Science Fiction premise, there are no advancements. In the future, the fear has taken over society, the only security is the lack of freedom. There resides the irony: in the fact that the result of all human actions in the future does not correspond to what we expected, a future with no advancements is incongruous.
