FBI Informant: Ray Bradbury's Sci-fi Written To Induce Communistic Mass Hysteria

v3rgEz writes: The FBI followed Ray Bradbury's career very closely, in part because an informant warned them that his writing was not enjoyable fantasy, but rather tantamount to psychological warfare. "The general aim of these science fiction writers is to frighten the people into a state of paralysis or psychological incompetence bordering on hysteria," the informant warned. "Which would make it very possible to conduct a Third World War in which the American people would believe could not be won since their morale had seriously been destroyed."

of course they followed an old white guy, but where was the FBI when that presbolutheran inuit transgender pansexual furry was writing all that sonic the hedgehog slash fic? It is time for equal rights when it comes to governmental agencies wildly overstepping the bounds of their duties.
