I was in high school in the mid- 2000s and read Brave New World, The Lord of the Flies, Fahrenheit 451, and other dystopia novels in high school.
Back then we had mandatory "feminist analysis" and I think maybe even "marxist analysis" (not sure anymore) of books we read but everyone just rolled their eyes and made up bullshit and didn't care.
It's weird thinking back and seeing the seeds of where all this insanity was coming from, and not realizing its significance at the time.
