If school kids were still made to actually READ 1984, then we wouldn't be in nearly the mess we're in today with it coming true in every literal sense.
1984 Brave New World Animal Farm Fahrenheit 451 A Canticle for Leibowitz A Clockwork Orange
Atlas Shrugged should also be up there.
Agreed. Oversight on my part.
Though I did prefer "The Fountainhead."
I am also realizing I should have put in "The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress" and "Starship Troopers" (even the movie is great if you are a sarcasmotronic pede like you and me).
Gonna hafta get that 5th one, it's new to me - see if my socialist library will handle it LOL
"A Canticle for Leibowitz" was adapted for radio in 1981 as a 15-part series, which you can listen to here: https://www.oldtimeradiodownloads.com/sci-fi/a-canticle-for-liebowitz
NPR broadcast it, so I don't know how faithful the adaptation is.
I won't listen to something that long, will have to snag the book
It's convenient, as you can listen while you drive or walk. The book might take longer than the radio show.
But is it done in the low, knowing, breathless whisper of NPC? I mean NPR?
Cuz I can't wait, if that's true.
I don't know. I just listened to a couple of seconds to make sure the files would play. I will be downloading the files to my stash, as Q said to archive everything. 100TB and growing. I hope I get hard drives for Christmas!
Sounds like a trove of info. Thank you for doing this work, pede. This great nation's posterity will remember you.
After 20th-century civilization was destroyed by a global nuclear war, known as the "Flame Deluge", there was a violent backlash against the culture of advanced knowledge and technology that had led to the development of nuclear weapons. During this backlash, called the "Simplification", anyone of learning, and eventually anyone who could even read, was likely to be killed by rampaging mobs, who proudly took on the name of "Simpletons". Illiteracy became almost universal, and books were destroyed en masse.
From the Wiki.
It's what is left after tyranny. A bunch of dunces milling around sifting through rubble.
Vpered!
Two boots are up to 80% effective. Time to double boot.
Ha ha ha, funniest thing I've seen in days.
Thanks for posting it, OP.
What---------? Is that Fauci under there?
Rand Paul isn't going to let this go. This is his fight and he's in it for the win.
No but he should be.
I think Rand Paul is grinding his face in it right now.
How about a surgically affixed mask since they love them so much?
Even the CDC says "that transmission from surface contamination is low".
"Scientists also report that levels of infectious SARS-CoV-2 on outdoor surfaces are more likely to be lower when compared to indoor surfaces as a function of air dilution and sunlight."
Gotta trust the science.

Only if it's a communist's face.
