Lemmy is worried about 1984 but in actuality is becoming Fahrenheit 451.

I don't think you've read either book because that analogy makes absolutely no sense.

I'll make the analogy more clear to you. In 1984 the government got absolute information control, thats what you guys are worried about. In Fahrenheit 451 people themselves censored everything that offended anyone, eventually leading to all the books being burnt.

People have opinions, and lemmy is becoming a worse echochamber than reddit.
