      "Fire is bright, fire is clean" as visual metaphor for the insistent ravenous pace of modern mass media, the constant yammering Now of news

      On that level it's if anything much more relevant today than when written, even if the core metaphor of mass illiteracy is now outdated

      I feel like F451 hits on that middle ground between Brave New World and 1984 - we won't be kept in immiseration nor drugged into a haze

      It hit a theme of the cyberpunk dystopias that followed it -- we'll be BUSY. We'll be TIRED. The problem w the future is just too much shit

      Bradbury's after the fact reveal that Fire Chief Beatty is an embittered classicist who's fully embraced the nihilism of modernity is great

      There's something very dark and very Internet era about Beatty having a secret sealed library in his home

      It's all legal bc he owns them but never reads them. He has no need to -- "I've read them all, I know what they say, they've got no answers"
