It is alright. It has the main problem in that moral minority thinks it knows what is best for the immoral majority even though the immoral majority is largely just enjoying living life. It essentially got things right regarding this but does not raise the question of if the moral minority has any right to tell the immoral majority what to do especially when the moral minority is the one defining the terms. Richard Brautigan did a nice take on this with In Watermelon Sugar, if you read one you should read the other.

Are you sure? Personally, I think Bradbury is a boomer classic tier author that no one will read after 2050.

Not him but that was a cringe post. Bradburry has works which will endure, F451 is probably not one of them.

I would call Dandelion Wine and The Martian Chronicles his best works, I am not a huge fan of the latter but it stays in print and continues to be read for a reason and it is not just boomerdom.

I thought it was alright. Its a little blunt with what its doing but the world it builds was kind of interesting and I'd say it was overall enjoyable. As others have said, The Martian Chronicles is probably better but personally The Martian Chronicles ends up being a bit too depressing while Fahrenheit 451 had a bit of hope left in it and I enjoyed that.
