"1984", "Fahrenheit 451" and "Brave New World" should be required reading for all high school students before graduating

Welcome to ArizonaShooting.org!

Join today!

People should be required to watch "Demolition Man", "Idiocracy", and the series of "Atlas Shrugged". We're in a very odd place in retrospect to these films but so much like them.

I very much agree that Animal Farm, Fahrenheit 451, Animal House, & Brave New World should be required reading. I also agree that Atlas Shrugged might be a tough read for way too many of our high school students of today.

The Woke Bell Tolls for Ernest Hemingway

Readers have now been warned. Anyone in our enlightened age who is crazy and daring enough to read Ernest Hemingway, an author who is not a person of color, not trans, and not a victim of white patriarchal oppression, will now be waved off by Hemingway’s own publisher. New editions of the work of the man who was once considered one of America’s greatest writers, before such things came to be measured solely by the author’s race, gender, and political proclivities, contain a “trigger warning” alerting fragile wokesters to the fact that if they are actually so foolish as to read the book, they will encounter thoughts that today’s elites have most decidedly not approved.

Seems all to familiar.
I suspect the reading comprehensions level of the current generation is far too low to have a clue.

Even if they grasped the bigger words, the message would not be available.

Or, just seem to be, like, you know, "oh wow, what is the problem?"
 
"The object of the game is to put a fence around any thoughts and ideas that aren’t approved by the elites. The next step will be to ban Hemingway and others altogether. Keep your old books. The time will come when you’ll need to hide them."

"The woke censors want to make it impossible for you to think anything they don’t want you to think, by closing off your access to any writer or thinker who might give you an idea of which they do not approve."

The publisher of his book has now put "trigger warnings" on them.
