Like I'm pretty sure the conclusion I had was "oh haha I see your point mr. Vonnegut, too much equality can indeed be a bad thing!"
And I definitely don't remember my teacher suggesting anything about it being viewable as satire of red scare paranoia either
Who? Man in my day all we read was Mice and Men and Fault in our stars with random shitty short stories from the state text book peppered in between, what private schools y'all go to?
Wait, yall read John Green for school??
Yep, we came in one day to find a dozen boxes stacked against the wall, teacher was really into it, I thought it was corny and boring
I was very anti John Green in high school, but mostly just because I was going through a very obnoxious "not like other girls" phase. I thought I was so cool for reading thought provoking Ayn Rand instead of that fluffy tumblr romance shit :cringe:
