My head still spins when I think about strange men who call themselves “firemen” coming into my house and burning my books… Still! In the world that Bradbury created, firemen don’t put out the fires; they create them. They do so by burning people’s books so they don’t discover anything or explore or think in any way. Of course, a society that doesn’t think or question is an ideal society for anyone that wants to rule a nation.

The story is a bad acid trip, and the message is much more than cautioning censorship. Fahrenheit 451 was never required reading during my grade-school years, or ever, and I must wonder if the anti-political correctness, and warning of appeasing minorities was the culprit. Cheers to independent individuals-who do not require others to fit into their storyline.
