Considering it's more unreadable than Finnegans Wake, I doubt the Repulsicans will get to the end of Mein Kampf. MAGAts won't be able to figure out how to open it.
The symbolism of that being what’s left on the shelves is also harmful. Without reading and trying to process the rantings of a madman on its pages, the book is still known to many to suggest global conquest and eugenics as positives.
And no one anywhere has the power to stop these young, vigorous, super geniuses! If only they weren't so smart and made of titanium!
Holy shit, America! The weakest fucking people on the face of the earth have you by the "balls". Why do you all continue to choose this? How much do you love racism?
Any Jew who buys into this anti-immigrant, anti-Muslim racism having anything to do with antisemitism is a moron. I do have to say the overwhelming majority of Jews that I know strongly oppose what administration is doing.
Of all the Jews I have met (and I am one of them). Let's say a couple hundred in my lifetime, I can think of maybe like 2 that support trump. Most of us know full well that the administration is using as pawns for foreign policy and imperialism while at the same time creating more antisemitism.
There's a reason the people who make these antisemitism bills are great replacement believing Christian nationalists (Elise Stefanik for example). It's not genuine and never was. And they actually don't even listen to Jewish voices who keep telling them to fucking 🛑
I have a copy of Mein Kampf...It was printed here in the US in 1943. It was signed. I read it. It sits on the shelf in my book cabinet over my desk. I see that book there every day.
Trump just a few days ago said in the Oval Office with Bibi right there that Nazis treated Jewish prisoners “with love”! Deport trump for anti-Semitism!
OK, I collect old and rare books. I have an original mein Kampf from 1925. This being the 100 year anniversary, I'm considering burning it live on social media. I hate book bans but jfc if any deserved to get burned.....
Dave, I would buy it from you before I'd let you do that. Please consider it. Or at least have folks pay a couple of bucks to have access to the burning. I'd rather you sold it to me though.
That's definitely not me. I have a history degree and extensively studied WWII Germany and Europe. I'm also Black, which hell these days who fuckin knows, right? But nope, not a Nazi lover.
Oh, I know there's Millon's of copies out there. Burning mine would be symbolic. And yea that might be petty and "Nazi esque" but I'm thinking about it. Museum is a fine idea tho
It's atrocious and the people who see it as a road map are the scum of the earth, but don't participate in the erasure of history. Maybe annotate it so a reader can see the danger and hate in the message. You'll get to deface it and tank its value while turning it into an educational tool. Win-win.
Just to be clear, Mein Kampf *should* be available - it’s an academic library! - which highlights the absurdity of removing all the other books. The morons who do this literally don’t understand what “studying books” means.
Are there ANY works by women or minorities still there? Actually, they are surely just removing based on titles that mention race or women.
I'd be very interested in what happened to books on the Middle East.
And this just shows that they are using antisemitism to deport people is a lie. If they really cared about Jews & antisemitism, they’d focus on Holocaust education. What a joke
Trump is antisemitic. We're an excuse he's using to undermine education while turning people who should be our allies against us. If you don't think he's coming for us soon you're mistaken.
They could not care less about Jews. They want Israel to do their dirty work to annihilate an entire people, so they can say we didn’t do it the Jews did it.
They also believe that there must be a State of Israel in order for their morbid end-times prophecy to happen. What they expect to happen to Jews when that starts is... not great.
Yes if they don’t accept Jesus as their savior they die and go to hell, something like that. The Christians wrong talk about abortion well they are okay for letting children die at the hands of Christians or of a deadly disease. They are the ultimate murderers.

Is scrubbing any criticism of Israel from their social networks. On behalf of all of the Jews in my family and around the world who know that Zionism is not Judaism and is in fact antithetical to it I say - FUCK YOU, Mark Zuckerberg and the Nazis you love!
More sick fascist shit! What library is this? A school, public library? WTF!? Now I'm feeling like making a book burning pile for everything anti-freedom!
It's very clear that like a lot of these far-right movements, the Trump administration doesn't really care about stopping antisemitism. What these ghouls know is that the pretext that they are fighting antisemitism, a good thing to do, can be used for their own sinister agenda.
It is so difficult for me to discuss him with any kind of seriousness, given I will likely have a rage stroke before I finish a screed on all the ways he is unqualified for the job he currently holds. Sleazy is just the start.
It seems increasingly likely that the MAGA cult plans to “end anti-semitism” by shipping American Jews to Israel in hopes of igniting Armageddon and the return of their blond-haired, blue-eyed Baby Jesus.
Anyone with a shred of intelligence can read Mein Kampf and feel the crazy pop off the pages. I was 14 when i read it after it was recommended to me by a friend. I never read it again, and i never spoke to him again.
Anyone who reads it and agree's with it should be institutionalised for life.
My mother and I read it when I was in high school. I kind of think everyone should for the insight. We walked around for months just shaking our heads. It was completely whack and yet he still managed to rise to power.
Hitler was a joke at the time too (that mustache has always looked stupid) but he had the backing of major German and American industrial giants like Rockefeller, Ford, IBM, Bayer, Chase and the Bush family (to name a few) who all wanted to profit from the slave labor fascism provides.
To be honest. I feel like people are so braindead they'd be like "ooo he has a point" so I'm not really pro everyone should read it position, but yeah I also get what you mean.
And the moon is made of Swiss cheese, Felon47 is a elected president, Elvis is selling French fries somewhere in Germany, no swastikar has ever gone up in flames, the earth is a disk with a giant turtle on its underside, the US of A are the homeland of the bravefreesomething.
I got a text from the ADL and it freaked me out!!!
Here’s what they sent:
ADL: Wikipedia is no longer a neutral source-antisemitic bias has infiltrated pages that millions read daily. Urge Congress to act now to hold Wikipedia accountable. https://mbl.ms/kKnQosyCuWS Stop2Quit
If anything, an academic library is the appropriate place to put items like that--along with works that are hyper critical of the person who wrote it and how he affected marginalized groups.
Kinda like how certain flags belong in museums criticizing it, and not on somebody's house...
Pretty sure many European countries have anti-hate speech laws and have shown that there are reasonable restrictions on speech. Heck, we even have limits on speech here in the states, just in different manners.
Paradox of tolerance, my friend. It's okay to be intolerant of intolerance
Or perhaps it isn't really a paradox at all. Yonatan Zunger argues that it is a mutual & reciprocal social contract. Intolerance breaks the social contract & we do not need to accept or continue to abide by broken contracts.
A quote is not an argument. Besides, several other countries have figured out ways to outlaw hate speech and frankly have better civil liberties than we do, or at least much better outcomes. Belgium, France, Germany, Denmark, and Finland all have variations on anti hate speech
Ok. Someone writes a book: Why the Jews/PoC/autistic people/women are our misfortune and how we can effectively and cheaply eradicate them.
I want to ban the book.
You call me a fascist because I reject freedom of speech.
Did I understand that correctly?
The repetition has already begun. The question now is, are people gonna stand up and stop it or will there just be head shaking and pearl clutching until it's just too late and all the lambs are led to the slaughter?
Something I don’t understand is the Elon picked lackeys at agencies in our government who are Jewish. How can they sleep at night? It’s kind of mind boggling
While you are hand wringing of the availability of Mein Little Dick the account of what Israel and it’s fanatics are conducting in Palestine will one day be written and the true scale of the evil perpetrated will be recorded. The irony of your concern. Swap antisemitism with Islamophobia.
Thank you! No one should be mistreated or targeted, but the *current* genocide (burning, bombing and starvation of amputee children, babies, etc., etc.) should take priority. Jews Against Genocide are magnificent, as are If Not Now, Not in Our Name and others like them.
I was commenting here on the hollowness of the pretext of antisemitism to justify Islamophobia (and so much else), not handwringing over the availability of Mein Kampf (which obviously should be available, as should the Holocaust history that was pulled).
(I would like to know if his father - son of German immigrants - was a member of the German American Bund, the pro-Nazi organisation in the 1930s? The GAB held the 1939 Nazi rally at MSG. What's the bet that DT's father was there??) https://www.yahoo.com/news/ivana-claims-trump-kept-hitler-114213717.html
And I guess it isn’t the commentated version re-issued by the Bavarian state over here a few years back when the copyright in Germany ran out.. concerning the US rights, they were sold in the 30s so there’s a direct line of profit leading all the way to the author and his fans in the US..
Zur Not: 4 gewinnt und ne 4 kann man im Studium auf so viele Arten ausgleichen.. aber kenn auch die Panik, „Scheiße, auf ne 4,0 muss ich auch erstmal kommen!“ nur zu gut 😔 anyway, Du packst das! Noch einmal durchziehen, dann ist vorbei! ✊
Just for the background: rumours have it the book was illegal until recently in Germany, which is not quite true. Officially the Bavarian state was the heir to Hitler estate and this the rights to the book. Thus, they could simply prevent any re-issue on copyright claims and they did.
1500 Jews slaughtered in one day, more than at any time since the Holocaust. Women have had their breasts cut off while being raped by the same freedom fighters who are now the poor victims.
No. Not ok with that.
But anti-Semitism and hatred of Israel are like water: they always find their way.
This sort of proves the post. Yes Israel is a terrible but why do you just assume most Jews support it? (not withstanding the person in the comments). This is part of the problem and why Trump is just stoking the flames of antisemitism and associating Jews with Israel en masse
Perhaps a reason why they don’t like this book— Jacobs rejected the sterile monument. She asked what do people do around the memorial? Live, grieve, gather? Her moral threat is insisting history must breathe in public life—not stand aloof as stone.

Stephen Miller needs to be disappeared. Silenced.
No matter how.
He's in charge of White Kremlin policies.
He is a dangerous being!!!

Two copies, presumable one pristine, one not, could be a vaguely reddish hued flag.
Two+ copies in similar conditions?
Nazi.
Read once or less? Seems alright-ish.
Read more than one time other than to retrieve historical info?
Nazi.
Your oppression is their profession.

You are bigly right.
Thanks for proving my point.
Fascism eats brains, dear. Leave that white-supremacist cult while you still have any left.
Shut the fuck up and go back to Shitter. This is your biotope.
The Torah has thoughts on liars like yourself. Maybe read them, assuming you can?
