'Mein Kampf' - Hitler's book returns to German bookshelves

[Infested Mushroom]

I actually recommend reading it.

Not that it's a good read, mind you, but familiarizing yourself with Hitler's views is advantageous when others try to tell you "what Hitler thought."

Exactly.

If you want to have a well-rounded and educated view on politics, you can't just stay within your own ideological box. Books like the Doctrine of Fascism, Mein Kampf, the Communist Manifesto, Man Economy and State, and What is Property (as a start), should all be required reading for anyone who wants to claim good and full knowledge of political theory.

There is no good excuse for banning books. I find censorship of literature to be horrific.

The only literature that should be banned are magazines with extreme frontal nudity.

Encouraged. I think you meant to say encouraged.

No. I said banned. They should be burned and prevent our youth from being perverts.

Too late. The Internet was invented.

Then, have the schools and parents teach that pervertism is wrong.

Have you been to the Internet for more than five seconds? Titty mags are antiquated. If anything, they should be burned for trying to sell what a quick Google search nets for free. But not because of bare skin. That's ridiculous.

Pervertism sounds like a great religion.

I declare myself Grand High Poobah of Pervertism.

For anyone who's interested, i offer competitive tithing plans and nearly unlimited access to porn.

Not because of bare skin. Its because of boobs and such.

[New Axiom]

Let everyone read it if they want. If anyone's too stupid to take up Hitlers ideas, well, that's why there's the UN and NATO.

[Eol Sha]

They already do that. Guess what? Didn't work. Didn't work during the '70s and doesn't work now. Teenagers are naturally inclined to be curious about sex. No amount of teaching and indoctrination will change that.

That said, we're threadjacking.

[Scanzian Freehold]

With the sheer amount of added material, and weighing in at over 10lbs, It seems to me that Mein Kampf Runneth Over...

Makes you want to really get down and supplicate.

Well, it's the scholarly edition of Mein Kampf right? I don't have a problem for that. There should be a scholarly edition of the Quran as well, for example with references and explanations from the Tasfirs. I think too many people think the Quran is the one stop shop for all Islam like the Bible.

If they were teached well from a young age, that is very unlikely.

A scholarly edition of the Bible would be nice as well, though.

[Pan Asian Amercian Coalition]

Ok, and? The west has freedom of print; if a publisher wants to publish something, let them.

That too.

[Prussia-Steinbach]

I approve. Only religious literature should be banned.

Only hentai should be banned

Hentai hasn't killed anyone. Hasn't started any wars, or crusades, or inquisitions, hasn't prompted any fatwas, or jihad...

That's exactly what they want you to think! Haven't you heard of the Porn Wars?

Never played it, but there is a hentai game/visual novel called Boob Wars.

Oh heavens, not boobs. How utterly vile.

[Finland SSR]

I think it's a good thing, because now people will see how shitty of a book it was.

Seriously, I had to read it for my studies and I came out even less fascist than before.

Almost all Crusaders didn't go to Palestine for religous reasons, and they lack any knowledge of the Bible and rely on priests, many of whom are corrupt. The Inquisition was made by people who either wrongly interpreted the Bible or never read it at all. Even jihadists lack serious knowledge of the Quran...


And yet, hentai has indirectly killed people who were raped and then killed by sick perverts who got their pervertism from constant hentai watching.

Are...are you seriously saying that hentai has lead to more deaths than Christianity or it's teachings? And saying that hentai actually makes normal people engage in rape and murder? I would love to see a source that proves that the majority (almost all) of the thousands of religious fanatics that embarked on a Holy War did not do it for religious reasons.

Yeah, no. See, there is this thing called puberty that makes every human being curious about icky, nasty sex.
