Fahrenheit 451 Final

I think it’s the people’s fault that they gave up they’re freedom of speech. I believe that people should fight and stand up for they’re freedom of speech. It’s who we are and with out it we’re really nothing. We’ll be like zombies walking just living in a program, living life like we’re told too.

I think that a good example of this would be Clarisse because she’s out there she lives her life how she wants and doesn’t play by the rule like the others do. She realizes that something isn’t right and she starts to see that it’s a system and expresses it to Montag. Montag latter starts to realize that they’re being cut out from information, but nobody tries to be there own person they start to believe in the system and are ok to live life by it in other words they gave up there freedom of speech to speak for them selves.

In my life experience that i'm living threw right now, I'm also living in a program. I'm limited to the things that I can do, the way I can dress, and the things I can say. I feel limited from the information of what’s going on back home. Just like the people in the book there is nothing I can do about it. I gave up my freedom of speech when I broke the law. All I can do is go with it and act like I’m happy.

Another good example of giving up your freedom of speech would be Faber. He was a professor and he basically had it made. He him self gave up everything that made him, him and in the book he admits that he regrets it. He said that he feels like a coward because he should have fought harder. Not only for him but his believes in learning.

In my life I can think of many examples that I could have fought harder for something I loved or really cared for. I feel like a coward myself for just sitting back and letting that happen. If I could go back in time and change the out come of things I honestly would. So I know how Faber feels, I think that he feels like he has nothing else to lose so he’s willing to try to make it right.

In my opinion I think that there is no dictum or censorship because they allowed it to be that way. Now that they’ve let it be that way there’s no going back to how things use to be. People can try to change what’s happening but they’ll probably just end up getting light on fire, so they just go with the system But lets face it don’t we all go threw some type of system.
