It's a controversial book; some people couldn't be arsed to read online; others simply want the book in print.

A minority of those will inevitably be budding Nazis, but hell, they're fucked already.

If it hadn't been banned, it wouldn't be a bestseller now.

It's literally just been released, what did you expect.

Look, it's literally the most infamous book in modern history. No wonder people want to take a look.

It's not the end of the world if people get to read a book.

It is for people who are killed by the inflamed after reading said book.

[The Nihilistic view]

You can't fight ideas by ignoring them. The book is a good move to get in first before any other version is published.

Reading books does not mean you agree with their content.

[Jumalariik]

Badly written book for a bad ideology. Though some bits are poetic enough. Hitler was a liar, and though not an idiot, he certainly was not more than a demagogue in the hands of the rich. He subverted the goals of a nationalist revolution for his own cause.

By Mein Kampf?

We don't ban Stalin or Mussolini's works, despite both of them being more charismatic and intelligible than the literal rants of a rabid Austrian peasant.

^This.

[Agent Black]

Well it's not like it wasn't illegally reproduced and dispensed so it doesent really matter.

[Vorond]

Good...let everyone read that bloody book, just to get rid of its luster of the forbidden. I read it once in university, it's complete crap and not even entertaining.

He didn't earn much as a painter. So, peasant.

I myself would like to read it, if only to try to get into the mind of someone like Adolf on a psychological level. Even Manson's and Kaczynski's writings are insightful, loathsome as they can be in context.

I see no issue in releasing the text to the public, even if it lacked annotation. Nobody except a fringe already on the public's radar believe Hitler was anything aside from a monster, but as many have stated earlier, it's important to see the makeup of a man like that, and take special care when someone in the modern day makes the same steps.

[Prussia-Steinbach]

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...

The reasons behind all those things were still religious. You can think they were correct in their interpretation or not; it makes no difference.

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

It is a terribly written book though. A 100 page manual on how to unclog toilets would be more entertaining.

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.

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

Oooooohhh, tits. So scary. Breasts are non-sexual organs with the very important duty of feeding infants. What if I find elbows sexually arousing? Should we make women start covering those too?

Seriously, how young and sheltered are you that you advocate such restrictive, authoritarian, immature, silly laws?

Insult to peasants, much? Unlike Hitler, Austrian peasants were perfectly productive members of society.

As nasty as some of it gets, there's no evidence that it causes violence. That's ridiculous.

It's also not a reason to ban hentai.

Painter.

He was the son of a peasant and low class official who ended up leaving home and failed in his dream of becoming a painter. The Nazis were all hung up on publicizing his peasant roots (due to Austrian peasant stocks who were supposed to have the purest bloodlines).

It doesn't even offer any insight into that beyond what you could get from reading a biography.

Boobs aren't even sex organs.

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

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

Asexuals exist.
