Can you name one time in History where it was a good thing to ban or burn books?

Lot of similarities between the Nazis and today's Democrats.

The bottomline in America; the Almighty Buck! I'm with you. I'd be crying too if I'd just donated books which quickly turned into a mint.
The silver-lining is to consider the full value of the donation on your receipt for tax purposes.
Not on EBay.

The banned titles? Snap them up. Instant collectibles. Obviously the better the condition the more valuable.
Such fads quickly soar in price but never fall much below the high on the backside of the wave. It just means you'd have to sit on them longer if you bought high.
Check it in six months. Anyone who has them could be sitting on several thousand dollars worth.

Just checked on my Kindle app. Apparently you can. It's $8.72 and it's unlimited.
Lol, if you pay 9.99 a month you can join “unlimited” I have it so my son has access to any book he wants.
To all those books.
But thats good its still there. As an anti-racist activist ive been at tiles a book like the turner diaries are a goldmine.

It was "If I Ran the Zoo". I just checked "And to Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street". Apparently it's under review. "The Cat's Quizzer" is not there.
Haven't checked the other three yet.

The other three are not there. Probably weren't on there in the first place anyway.

LOL People are funny.
"A fool and his money are soon parted."
Soooo I learned this today: https://knowyourphrase.com/a-fool-and-his-money-soon-parted
"Thomas Tusser...a poem he wrote called Five Hundred Points of Good Husbandry, in the year 1557. While the wording is a bit different, the expression is still similar enough to the one that’s used today:
“A foole and his money be soone at debate: which after with sorow repents him too late.”
Five centuries later people are still being as easily parted from their money.

I'm against banning books, political correctness and authoritarian governments. That said, this is a business decision internal to the heirs of Dr. Seuss. If Amazon or any other business chooses to stock or not stock any books, that's their call. Only fucking morons would suggest forcing the heirs to print or Amazon to carry books.
What's the next step for them? Forcing Amazon to sell Volsrock's latest pamphlet titled "Little Johnny Reb lynches a n****r"?
That's what's really at the bottom of this; a movement to force businesses to start selling everything that they want. It's not just nationalism or white nationalism. It's National Socialism, something they've been pushing for five years.

While I agree it was a marketing decision, there's something to be said about "moral judgments" too. Morals influence people, but businesses always have to calculate the bottom line if they are to survive as a business. It's just the reality of numbers.
What the Trump Cultists and the Qless want is to force companies to continue selling them Nazi paraphernalia, racists books and porn over the Internet.
They have lost the first two and are very concerned they'll lose the last one due to the "Cancel Culture".
