unable to think

I realized that people don't think for themselves or more that they are afraid to do so. The books that express a certain thought that might offend someone is band forcing people to think a certain way. this in my opinion is unthinkable the Authur was trying to show his fear of this happening in modern day. they say the people in this world are happy without these band books but then why are so many attempting suicide if everyone is happy. I think that they all smile on the outside and cry on the inside hiding their fear unable to speak their mind. the main character montag is realizing this now that the young girl exposed him to what the world used to be how people were truly happy and people could think for themselves. what changed and why is my question how could people let their world change so much.

my first impression is that this book deals with life and culture today which is why i decided to read it. this book is strongly opinionated. it starts with the burning of knowledge books showing a dystopia a world where people are silenced with fire a world without opinions. people don't think for themselves letting society do it for them this is what drew me in i wanted to know more about this world. i want to know how that kind of world can happen why it happens i can't conceive this as world where I would want to.
