It's funny how I hate Ray Bradbury a whole lot more than I hate George Orwell and FAHRENHEIT 451 is probably one one of the most poorly-written books I've ever had to read but as a whole, it's been a lot less harmful to political discourse than 1984, a book I actually enjoyed

Bradbury's horniness for women younger than his wife is his least subtle and most embarrassing writing tic (and apparently had no impact on the fact that his wife was the only woman he was with for his entire life)

I do have to point out that the book hoarder who dies in the opening scene is also a woman

Also I mean All of these canonical white man dystopias are like this Bradbury is doing the exact same Cool Girl vs Bitch thing that Orwell did with Winston's goodthinker wife Katharine and his sexy younger mistress Julia
