Please hurry i beg o you i cant figure this thing out for the life of me and this is 3 weeks past due. How does the sentence "No flies fly into a closed mouth" (par. 21) develop and refine one of Alvarez's ideas in "A Genetics of Justice"?

Answer:

The statement “No flies fly into a closed mouth” (par. 21) develops the idea that speaking out can cause problems and be silent is the safest decision. While Alvarez knows that speaking the truth is important, people in authority try to keep others silent as a way of controlling them. Vocabulary
