Should We Ditch Shakespeare for Dystopia?

Confession time, my friend: I once sat in a classroom in Boston, clutching a battered copy of Shakespeare, wondering if Hamlet ever had to dodge TikTok algorithms. 📱 Let’s be real—our world is saturated with rhetoric, echoing from every glowing screen. Isn’t it time we swapped some of those dusty classics for razor-sharp reads like 1984, Fahrenheit 451, or Brave New World? These books don’t just entertain; they arm us against the digital deluge of persuasion and manipulation. Ironically, we’re still stuck in the past, teaching the same texts while rhetoric evolves at warp speed! Maybe I’m wrong (and I’d love for you to tell me why in the comments). Should we cling to tradition, or is it time to revolutionize our reading lists?
