When you think of the most astute minds of our time, you might well think of Ray Bradbury's — but you probably don't think of him as one of the most astute _terrorist_ minds of our time. The Federal Bureau of Investigation, however, saw things differently. Collaborative news site MuckRock found that out through files "[released to former MuckRocker Inkoo Kang][34] [which] document the decade the Bureau spent trying to determine if Bradbury was, if not a card-carrying Communist, at least a sympathetic 'fellow traveler.'" See snippets of documents here from 1959.

![Bradburysecuritymatter][35]

You can [view the files themselves, obtained under the Freedom of Information Act, at MuckRock][36]. There, the site's JPat Brown also summarizes the organization's basis for suspicion against the author: his "membership in the Screen Writer's Guild, as well as his vocal opposition to McCarthyism, drew particular attention," as did the use in [_The_ _Martian Chronicles_][37] of the "repeated theme that earthmen are despoilers and not developers." Not just Bradbury's work but the whole of science fiction, which informant Martin Berkeley calls a possibly "lucrative field for the introduction of Communist ideology," comes in for an indictment.

![brad2][38]

"Communists have found fertile opportunities for development," Berkeley says, "for spreading distrust and lack of confidence in America [_sic_] institutions in the area of Science Fiction writing." Another, unsurprisingly clearer view of the genre comes from Bradbury himself, quoted disapprovingly in the file from a 1959 Women's Legislative Action Bulletin. There, he said he uses the medium of science fiction to "try to bring to light some of the current fallacies in human values today" — the one thing, as the author of [_Fahrenheit 451][39]![][40]_ must have known full well, that the powers that be least want anybody to do.

It’s obvious he was a commie—Martians are RED, right?

Check the early star trek series. They are full of innuendo references to communism. Brilliant propaganda light years ahead of anything.
