What are the similarities between our society and Ray Bradbury's in Fahrenheit 451?
For the most part it is an unthinking society that exists to consume entertainment. Ideas that contradict the government are suppressed, and people are encouraged to be selfish, mocking, bullying, and hedonistic. Sacrificing yourself for an ideal is confusing to Montag when he sees it. Why would anyone do that? But he finds that there are other parts of society that still value different things, and he learns to as well.
Both our society and the society depicted in Fahrenheit 451 prioritize entertainment and instant gratification over critical thinking and intellectual pursuits. In both societies, there is a tendency to rely on technology for communication and information rather than engaging in meaningful face-to-face interactions. Additionally, censorship and suppression of ideas are present in both societies, albeit to varying degrees.
I wouldn't even know where to begin on this subject. A few things that are different would be easier; In that proposed society books were banned where in our current society books are not banned but instead are changed every few years so that the definitions are slowly adapted to mean something else entirely. For instance up to 1930 every book noted strongly that the USA was founded as a republic and not a democracy and in contrast today school children are taught there is not a difference. FDR ordered those books destroyed and reprinted with new definitions in 1934. (More Orwellian, but Fahrenheit was based off this concept).
Narcissistic, unable to deal with unpleasantness or negative subjects, and government controlled. All books are banned by the government as is any kind of criticism or depressing subject matter. The result is a lot of boredom and indifference.
the society in Fahrenheit 451 is a dystopian society because every one does not feel happy,Clarrise asked Guy Montage if he was happy
The world today is in the same state as Fahrenheit 451 by technology is replacing books as a source of education, knowledge and wisdom.
It's repressive and fascist. Books are outlawed, and "firemen" burn any books that are discovered.
