    Yeah, let’s put “Der Giftpilz”, meaning “The poisonous mushroom” - a German children’s book from 1938 - up for sale everywhere.

    Children should learn how Jews are the poisonous mushrooms of humanity because they rape German girls, killed Jesus and doom humanity if we don’t find a solution to the Jewish Question.

    This book can be legally sold in the US.

      It almost as if education and critical thinking about what one is reading is important.

      That book can be read to children in the context of it being wrong. It can be explained to children why it is wrong and that just because they read something in a book doesn’t mean it’s right.

      What’s better, educating people to think critically, or banning things so they don’t have to think at all?

      A conservative could say the same thing with a different book.

      Stop trying to ban books.
