What are some good banned books?
Those books aren't banned. Saw Mein Kampf selling in street stores multiple times.
>>25458649Wow, they’ll give out an award for anything
>>25458649the turner diaries
>>25458649Lolicon manga
>>25458649
My book wasnt shelved in local bookstores or supermarkets despite them having worse scoring books from the same publisher in the aisles. Could be ordered though. Does that make my book banned enough?
>>25458649you nazipedos don't get it do you? demented books that inspire violence and destabilize society are banned for a good reason
>>25458991you are an authoritarian in another direction
>>25458991>banning books is le bad!>banned books are SEXY, buy them in my bookshop>NOOOO, NOT THOSE ONES!>BURN THEM! BURN THEM ALLLLLL
>>25458649paradox of tolerance
The Pedophile's handbook.
>>25459026
>>25458991Destabilizing modern society where a good portion of men can't pass their genes on is a good thing, faggot.
>>25458649Mein Kampf is sold in Croatia normally
>>25458649>books about eugenics, racism, le migration are as censored as a book literally teaching how to make bombs and other weapons and use them against political enemies (turner)this is as a commie, why are liberals/gov so retarded?
>>25458655Siege isn't a banned book but Handmaid's Tale is?
>>25459182>Handmaid's TaleI'm gonna guess it was banned from some state at some point for being pornographic, but now they want you to think it was banned because it's prophetic and will definitely happen if we don't do anything (which women secretly find hot as fuck).
>>25458657lol
>>25459454>secretlyI think they’re pretty obvious about it, it’s right there in handmaid’s tale
>>25459454>from some statefrom some middle school library you doofusit's a marketing technique
>>25459969(x)
>>25458649200 years together by Solzhenitsyn. You can't find a legitimate translation in English.
>>25459975why would anyone translate that pack of lies
>>25459977You're begging the question.
>>25459979Lmao, no you are. You don't even know what that phrase means, do you?
>>25458849Why is the Musketeers there?
>>25459991Damn, I may have dismissed your fallacy using the wrong label. It's so over for me. I will have to answer you honestly now. 1) It's not lies.2) People still translate 'lies' for a variety of reasons, and this is common knowledge. A specific reason isn't needed or necessary.
>>25458655in the west the major publisher printing is intentionally overpriced and, i think, only available in hardcover. i think the logic is that it tries to limit purchase to academics but i don't see why a hardcore nazi would mind paying extra for their central text, it just disincentivizes the ordinary general reader from buying it.
>>25459037Pretty sure the majority of men not passing on their genes has been the status quo for most of humanity's existence. Natural selection has to work somehow.
>>25460033Are you using "natural selection" in the loaded way lay-people use, where they thing there is some mythical "end of biology" towards which evolution progresses? Regardless, humans engage in natural, social and sexual selection, none of which are inherently good or bad.
you know the whole banned books thing is 99% of the time just about various books being banned from schools because some random mom bitched about it right. these are marketing tactics and they're aimed at children who can't get whatever book in their local school districts and normies who want to feel like rebels by consooming. most of the time the books are being banned for somehow being anti-christian, pornographic, or encouraging homosexuality when the book in question is like "fido goes to the supermarket!"
Tintin in Africa (or in Kongo).No banned, but they silently removed it from all tintin collections and it is very hard to buy a copy.
>>25458655>Those books aren't bannedIt's illegal to own The Turner Diaries in my country and certain translations of Mein Kampf are almost impossible to attain. Modern censorship consists of deamplificaiton and limiting visibility.
A random school in the middle of nowhere will have a meeting where some parent says something like "why are kids reading this and not that" (the audacity of them caring about their children's education!!) so the libtard/leftoid coalition presents it as a grand cause célèbre and eventually it gets turned into a marketing gimmick. Modern censorship is done by shadowbanning and selective amplification/deamplificaiton. For example, a publisher sued Indigo because they refused to shelve a book about the Trucker Protest that was actually selling well online. The lawsuit obviously served to market the book but Indigo having to tie itself in knots to justify not granting shelf space to a book that was selling better than books on the same subject they did promote that way was hilarious.Anyway, it's kind of crazy how much political mileage libtards get out of making dimwits maintain the cognitive dissonance that they're part of an oppressed class while being able to attend university, lol. They sell them a pseudo-rebellion that really just props up the status quo and like retards they lap it up.
>>25460559>For example, a publisher sued Indigo because they refused to shelve a book about the Trucker Protest that was actually selling well online.I wasn't aware that a private business was under any legal obligation to shelve any particular book.
>>25460565It might not have been a lawsuit but it was in the news around the same time they were suing some pro-Palestinian group for boycotting them (the boycott was called "Indigo Kills Kids" so Indigo sued them for copyright infringement for using their name).Anyway, it's hilarious watching libtards/leftoids justify corporate censorship as long as it it's wielded against things they dislike.
>>25460574I'm not making any value judgement for or against, just pointing out that I know of no such legal precedent and I don't see how it could be enforced in a remotely workable way.
>>25460580>I'm not making any value judgement for or againstSure you are. It's a common argument retarded leftoids parrot while maintaining the cognitive dissonance they're anti-censorship and against corpocracy. The truth is you're not just cool with it but actively endorse it while still somehow managing to convincing yourselves you're fighting against the system and rebelling against the status quo. It's hilarious.
>>25460589Nah, I think people have a right to buy whatever book any other person will sell them, I just don't see how a legal mandate to carry certain books is supposed to work in practice.
>>25460591You're not fooling anyone, retard.
>>25460599So how exactly do you think the problem in question should be dealt with? Genuinely asking.
>>25460602Repeal hate speech laws, defund state sponsored news agencies, limit the ability of advertisers to target ads (aside from the privacy issues it's a backdoor uses to demonetize and thereby disincentivize content), mock people who think the books in OP are actually banned, and disallow hidden shadowbanning/selective amplification/deamplificaiton by making the purveyors of social media networks openly tag such alongside the other existing metrics that are clearly visible to users.
>>25460589>>25460599Sucks that you come across so needlessly tribalistic to the point of fabricating enemies because >>25460614this is pretty based. Though I would counter that hate speech vs hate crimes are different and the latter is a necessary distinction to clarify why, say, spray-painting swastikas on a synagogue to intimidate the residents of a Jewish neighborhood is different from spray-painting cocks like other basic acts of petty vandalism. Would also say that I do not necessarily trust private entities to provide news over state-sponsored ones, but that is more of a problem with determining what news or truth are actually considered rather than a preference for either. It is quite strange how state-sponsored media is not seen as abnormal in parts of the West, but that might be from a legacy of associating it with funding grants rather than top down explicit communication control.
>>25460663>Sucks that you come across so needlessly tribalisticDon't parrot stupid arguments and play dumb after being called out on it then, dumb fuck. >Though I would counter that hate speech vs hate crimes are differentI never said hate crimes and hate speech are the same thing, retard. Also, "hate" as an aggravating factor in a crime is a retarded concept. As far as>spray-painting swastikas on a synagogue to intimidate the residents of a Jewish neighborhood goes, intimidation is already a crime. >Would also say that I do not necessarily trust private entities to provide news over state-sponsored ones, but that is more of a problem with determining what news or truth are actually considered rather than a preference for eitherThat's why you don't have the government in charge of the news you naive retard. >It is quite strange how state-sponsored media is not seen as abnormal in parts of the WestThere's constant backlash towards it that has been steadily increasing over the last decade. Are you living under a rock? >a legacy of associating it with funding grants rather than top down explicit communication controlSure, retard. The people paying your bills have no control over your behavior and we should all trust the government as the ultimate arbiters of truth and the flow of information.
>>25460696I am not the anon you were responding to. I am elsewhere in the thread, and I did not say hate crimes were the same thing as hate speech. I also never said half of what you are reacting so emotionally too. Your constant aggressive defensiveness is fascinating. Like a woman but peppering in a retard and faggot every so often to try to fit in with the men. Are you always like this? You do not seem to read very well for being on the /reading/ board. Guess that would be pretty par for the course though.>>25460591You notice he never addressed this, anon? Why should private enterprise be legally compelled to sell or display a specific type of literature in any amount? That is the definition of the government meddling in the free market. If your books are not selling, perhaps that is the whim of the market and the will of the people rather than government or corporate suppression? This applies equally to left wing and right wing literature. It seems evident from average consumer reading habits that people prefer escapism to being preached to. Or is all political literature being systematically suppressed by The Man in favor of endless cozy adventure x dark romance foidslop?
>>25460709>I did not say hate crimes were the same thing as hate speechI never said you did. Not reading the rest because you're obviously retarded.
>>25458649Al Qaeda magazine
>>25458649The Camp of the Saints has actually always kind of interested me. Not for any political reasons, just the dystopian, yet eerily topical premise in general seems kinda cool. Is it worth reading? And as a western European, will I be put on a list if I order this book from Amazon?
>>25460884It's an amazing book, both prescient, coherent, and very well written. And suspenseful as fuck too. I'd get an epub or buy it with cash in a bookstore if I were you, you never know. It's unapologetically racist, I'm still a little surrpised to see it sold openly where I live (France)
>>25459931I said I was guessing, fagget.
>>25460559Oh so this is pasta now, huh?
>>25458991if your society can be destabilized by a book it has a bigger problems than censorship
>>25461156Not books, but the ideas they proliferateMarx changed the world with one book
>>25458649That meme reminded me of going into a Half Price Books and looking through the rare / antique section and seeing literally a lot of those books (including Siege) because some old nazi died and his family sold his collection. There was even a copy of Imperium by Yockey going for around $1,000 behind lock and key. I felt like I was hallucinating because it was in a store that looked exactly like that. I flipped through Siege a bit and have to say it didn't read like a literary masterpiece. It read like pornography.>>25460696>I never said hate crimes and hate speech are the same thing, retard. Also, "hate" as an aggravating factor in a crime is a retarded concept. As far as ... goes, intimidation is already a crime.Well it's an aggravating factor because the U.S. government really does not want you attacking synagogues or mosques or churches or Mormon temples to terrorize whatever religious congregation is in there, so they will throw you in prison. The U.S. is funny like that because censorship really doesn't come from the government as much as it does in many countries, but there's quite a lot of it as a form of peer pressure from other people in the society, and in the private realm of employment, like you could lose your job since there's at-will employment and political beliefs are not a protected category from employment discrimination (which also gives you the right to fire the libtards if you own the company). There's no recognized state religion either. But the moment you fuck with religious congregations or vandalize their stuff for some sectarian reason, it's curtains. The state is really remorseless about this and they will hunt you down and lock you up. This has destroyed a lot of minor neo-nazi gangs over the years because eventually they work their way up to throwing a Molotov cocktail at a synagogue or a mosque or firing a few shots through the windows which gets them GTA five stars from local police + the local state/federal joint counter-terrorism task force.
>>25460033No it doesn't. Just let men rape you bigot
>>25458649Anyone have an Audiobook of Mein Kampf? helps me study
>>25460565Indigo bought the book on a consignment contract where the publisher would have to buy them back if customers didn't buy the books. indigo intentionally stifled purchases to harm the publisher. You probably already understood this, but wanted to act otherwise for some dishonest and predictable reason.
>>25461448>no audiobook of Mein Kampf narrated by the man himselfThis world is so gay.
>>25461289>Well it's an aggravating factorIt shouldn't be. Simple as.
>>25461289We don't seem to have Half Price Books near me, which is a shame.
>>25461474If they acted in breach of a specific contract they had made with a publisher that's one thing, but it's not really relevant to the general case here.
>>25459998NTA but it was banned for a time in France under Napoleon I.
>>25458649Reverend Insanity.
>>25462268Mega based.
>>25458649Theres no such thing as banned books. The internet exists and you can get pretty much anything on ebay. Mein Kampf is in every book store and the copy of Michael in that picture is a print from like 2024 that you can still get for 20 dollars. >>25458678Its shit
>>25462291>Its shit?Why? Asking genuinely.
>>25462316I thought it was poorly written, like a fanfic. Most events, and the book as a whole are used as a way to write about killing niggers. Some people might find it cathartic I guess but its not actually good book by any means. Thats all even more true for any of Harold Covington's books.
>>25458849why would they ban there is no antimemetics division
>>25461510I'm sure there's enough audio to create Mechahitler and have it narrate Mein Kampf
>>25462351For the memes, of course
