      I genuinely prefer F451 to 1984, precisely because Bradbury did not aspire to actual political commentary and his book is much more blatantly just this poetic torrent of emotionhttps://twitter.com/Nymphomachy/status/1292216858939097088 …

      Vapor Weyve @Nymphomachy
      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

      Yeah, it was borne of frustration with books getting less popular. He’s said on multiple occasions it’s not actually about censorship, but you were probably already aware of that.

      I mean I'm gonna go against my anti-Bradbury friend group here and just broadcast this opinion -- He really did have a point about TV, and you don't have to be a cranky Republican like he was to agree with the sentiment

      Put it like this -- Is there any TV show or network or studio you can say has had as *positive* an impact on our society as every single thing Fox News has done has had a *negative* impact

          The Boomers, more than really any later generation, are the "TV generation", and they are the worst The whole thing about how Boomer Republicans are a "lost generation" because Fox News took over their brains

          There are, of course, awful examples of Fox News-like bullshit factories in every medium but I think you can make the case Fox News itself is a lot worse than its equivalents in print media or digital media

          Arguably "Sesame Street", globally, and " Mister Rogers' Neighborhood" in the US.

          Mr Rogers, of course, was, like Ray Bradbury, a cranky old Republican who hated TV Rogers said that's why he felt compelled to make a TV show, God was calling him to go into enemy territory, "because I hated it so"

          Which book from the 20th century had as positive an impact on our world as (e.g.) this book had a negative impact? One feels sorry for the Book Person who had to memorize this one.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Protocols_of_the_Elders_of_Zion …
