    You can’t seriously be against all censorship in books, right? Where are your actual boundaries? I don’t think you’d be ok with something obviously evil like a book of cp… Right?

    Edgecases are why it’s hard to be consistent.

      That’s illegal and for good reason.

      Yet somehow the US functions with freedom of speech even with some restrictions.

      But we’re not talking about CP are we? We’re taking about how we are still dealing with rightoids censoring books and now the left wants certain ones censored.

      I argued against the right censoring books and I’ll continue to argue the same way, regardless of who the next shitty group trying it is.
