Speeding through the streets, watching endless telecommunications, and swallowing sleeping pills by the handful are all ordinary acts that bolster the social order. Literature threatens this order, as its effects—emotion, reflection, stillness —enable citizens to recognize they are not prevailing.

Two atomic wars have come and gone without fanfare or criticism, and Montag questions why. Technology aids and abets this absentmindedness. When citizens become too human, animalistic robots step in. Hoses, described as pythons, hurl kerosene onto libraries. Suction tubes, described as snakes, pull poison out of people who overdose.
