Banning any book should be a criminal offense.

Idk man Mein Kampf should probably stay banned

I don't know if you've looked through any banned book lists recently but Mein Kampf doesn't tend to be on them.

My next question is, why not ban it?

Because it's a piece of manure. Let people read it, put some comments on it.

Over here it is not forbidden, but you did not get permission to reprint it...

It was merely a metaphor for the few numbers of comments needed.

Looking at the thumbnail that comes with this article, I can see where Larian Studios got the model for Auntie Ethel.

A hate so palpable you can see it!

“Come and burn some books, Petal!”

Did they choose that picture on purpose? She literally looks like a monster, it's quite scary.

It's news like this that makes me feel better about libre software.

The other side is depraved.

I used the stones to destroy the stones

Stuff like this is so scary because our stupid county usually follows your stupid, with 3 to 5 years delay.
