Our school district stopped assigning entire books. Just passages from novels. We’re there.

Remember the ending of Fahrenheit 451: people memorized entire books, preserving literature for the inevitable end of the regime

reading the entirety of books is so important to do in school, and those who read the spark notes will never get the fruit of the “work” they’re doing

“SHITTY” books count btw!! read that trashy romance novel, read the graphic novel!! you dont have to read intense classics immediately you can ease your way back to more complex novels. pick up a silly space opera, anything to get you reading again

"You don't have to burn books to destroy a culture. Just get people to stop reading them."

Some Random Person :
One important takeaway I had from reading F451 is that there wasn't really a "they". WE banned books. People WANTED books banned. It wasn't some government leader who randomly said one day "books must be burned!" It was society pushing away from books, gradually and naturally. That's not to say that F451 isn't a story about government control/overreach/propaganda, those themes are definitely present as well. But the government didn't force it on everyone in the beginning, the people chose to stop reading themselves.

Bradbury wrote 451 about TV. Imagine what he’d think now… (well, he thought the internet was a fad lol)

Just a reminder to people that hate AI, you can sit in a library for multiple hours and read a book (or check it out and bring it home), and it won't give you that dumb ahh ai summary

may i also add, from 1984, “who controls the past controls the future. who controls the present controls the past.” and their constant changing of history

Also in 1984 they burn/confiscate anything that contradicts with what the government declares as the truth and rewrite history/books/papers to match their current agenda 🫠
