ANTI-INTELLECTUALISM IN AMERICA
Sometimes slowing people down and making them think can make them be sad and even start a conflict, but that's not always the case. Slowing people down and making them think can be a good thing for them because they get to discover a new part of themselves they have not yet discovered. Letting people think can make them explore their minds and try new things. I believe people don't really think of intelligence as a superpower because they think that anyone can think that way if they try. Many people do not really pay attention to intelligence, because they have technology to help them. Lots of people criticize and insult those who use their brains because they believe, that just because they are smart they have no social life. Or that they spend to much time actually learning instead of doing the fun stuff. I believe that we are halfway to where Ray Bradbury feared on us not reading and just relying on technology. Half of us now rely on technology to know the answer, since so many of us have access to it. We sometimes don't even think to ourselves, we rely on Siri or Google. This world is becoming just like the book Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury.
