True.
Separately, I’ve read Atlas Shrugged at least a half dozen times, starting in the early ‘70’s. Every time I read it I can’t help but notice that the America described therein is becoming a reality.

1984 & Animal Farm are on my 13YO son’s reading list this summer. I’ll let him read Atlas Shrugged in a couple of years, he’s already seen the movie trilogy. The sex passages in AS aren’t appropriate for him.

Has this country gone completely mad?

We need to understand this process by which the media and internet activists can so easily whip of the mob. Our only hope is that they will take it too far, and provoke a reaction. But at this point, I don’t even know what “too far” would look like.

Ray Bradbury was not a liberal. I'm not sure he was a conservative, but he was not a liberal.

OT, but I'm pretty sure that's also true about the Coen brothers.
