/lit/ - Literature

It's retarded to be "pro" or "against" something as broad as "technology", you have to be more specific. I personally hate the information age, and industrial society in general. Even then, my feelings are mostly directed at the impact of technology on society rather than the concept of "technology" itself.

“Imagine a society that subjects people to conditions that make them terribly unhappy then gives them the drugs to take away their unhappiness. Science fiction It is already happening to some extent in our own society. Instead of removing the conditions that make people depressed modern society gives them antidepressant drugs. In effect antidepressants are a means of modifying an individual's internal state in such a way as to enable him to tolerate social conditions that he would otherwise find intolerable.”

Are there any books banned in briatain or the US currently? I know the US has the first amendment so it must be pretty hard to get a book banned and I'm sure Britain had a law about no longer allowing books to be banned but I'm curious if nowadays they've reversed that.
