>Fahrenheit 451 We are quite far away from that. On the contrary knowledge is preserved better than ever. Anna's Archive estimates they have preserved 16% of the world's books, all available to download with an internet connection. On the other hand, I can see the side of Fahrenheit 451 where the people don't value books which is what allowed the book burning in the first place. | ||

Like you said in the second part: people don't want to know anymore and just want to watch "game shows". No one is forbidding anything like in the other books. Doom scrolling is peak Fahrenheit. | ||

If you need to point to Anna's Archive for knowledge preservation, then we as a society are not intentionally preserving knowledge, quite the opposite actually. | ||
