Vonnegut uses characters like Harrison Bergeron to show the extreme consequences of enforced equality, where individuals lose their individuality and potential. Through his vivid and exaggerated word choice, he emphasizes the oppressive and suffocating nature of a society striving for absolute equality, cautioning readers against the homogenization that comes with such a system.

Indirect characterization is a method of development that requires the readers make a inductive leap. Based on information about the character, the reader makes an inference about their nature.
It is known as indirect characterization, where the author reveals information about a character through their actions, dialogue, thoughts, or interactions with others, allowing readers to form their own impressions.
Authors use the character's speech and thoughts for indirect characterization. Another technique they use so readers can infer what the character is like is interactions with other characters.
There are two ways of characterization: direct (you simply tell the readers "He was sad") and indirect (you show the readers by the character's actions, such as "He blinked rapidly to keep the tears from falling").
