Book Banning in Britain

[Anonymous No.10868182]

/lit/

I write to you today in awe. I have just recieved first word of the beginning of the end for free speech in Britain.
A hate group known as 'Hope Not Hate' has drawn up a list of books that they deem unacceptable. They are successfully pressuring retailers to stop selling certain titles that they disagree with for political reasons.
This is a large scale attempt to censor literature en masse, and an attempt to shape culture.
The nature of some of the titles is unpalatable, for example Holocaust denial. However many have existed for a long time and stood up against censorship - the Anarchist Cookbook for one.
They say that these books are 'hateful' and 'dangerous'. Well I say that banning books (!) is the greater danger. In this age of disinformation, it is vital that we have the full picture, even if the topics are unsavoury, we cannot shy away.

That is why I propose a plan.
We gather digital copies of all of the books listed, I know that many of them are already prevalently shared online. We then bundle the books together into a torrent, and disseminate the torrent. This way we can build a resilient vehicle for the books against any effort to censor them.
We cannot stand idly by [pardon the rhetoric] whilst our freedoms are eroded. Even if you don't partake, please have a look through the titles, keep an eye out. It may be important. If information is important enough to be censored, it's important enough for us to save,

The list is included in this document:

I hope that these seeds fall on fertile ground.

Terrifying and sad, even if it’s literature that I would never read or find personal revolting.

What is it with proles and signing (or voting) their most important freedoms away, but bitching if you take their most mindless degenerate hedonistic ones away?

Why do they always want to give up the really essential freedoms just so that their pathetic jerkoff hugbox can be more comfortable? Is it actually necessary to FORCE retarded common people to remain free?

No. It's needed to force a few obligations and force proles to like it that way.

Its the business's right to sell or not. Just boycott them if you care

[Anonymous No.10868250]

asking someone to not sell a book isn't wanting to ban a book. someone not selling a book isn't censorship. if you really want it, pirate it.

it's the ol' "well technichually it's not banning, we're just very adamant about these books getting a big stamp of disapproval, removed from decent society/public discouse and also they shouldn't be sold anywhere"
also who the fuck cares about the uk, let them stew in paki cum and acid. the inbred islanders are ready for the trashcan

[Anonymous No.10868277]

And while the authorities ban books offensive to jews and jewish multiculturalism, and ban even weak right-leaning people like Brittany Pettibone from Britain altogether, they cover up the grooming and gang rape of thousands of young English girls by Paki apes.

This should sicken every white man with a semblance of a conscience. And remember that it was a jewess name Sue Berelowitz who covered these crimes up at the highest level.

Anyay, this entire thing is meaningless. While it might mean that the biggest retailers in the UK would no longer sell these books, there are enough smaller ones that would pick up the pieces. Plus through the internet you'll always have access to digital versions of those books.

I honestly have to wonder if this is some deep-cover psyop by some Gnosto-Nazi traditionalist cult. Banning the physical sale of a book will do nothing to stop its spread. If anything, it does the opposite via the Streisand effect.

Publishers and distributers are free to publish or not publish whatever they please. The libertarian/free speech position argues frequently and obnoxiously that the market should decide what gets sold and what doesn't. This is what consumer advocacy looks like.

I just don't understand this. It's such a small minority of people in this country that support restricting book sales, but the most likely outcome of this is that they petition these companies by making a big stink about it on social media, followed by the companies caving in and removing these titles. I could honestly even see the government meeting these demands halfway and taking punitive action against companies that sell "hate literature".

Why though? What the fucking hell is the incentive for - companies or government - to listen to these clowns, when they're such a small fraction of the population and wouldn't make a dent in their overall sales? Please someone tell me the answer.

>>10868336
Correct, but that's not what is happening here. These people are essentially threatening publishers and distributors that they'll run to the government and forcibly restrict them from selling certain works if they don't voluntarily remove them. That's not a libertarian process, that's making ever-increasing concessions to a mob in order to prevent a full governmental body-slam of censorship against your company.

The English have been jewed for a very long time and a sizable amount of thei leadership there are jews now intent on destroying the nation, as jews are wont to do.

People like David Cameron are the descendants of old school jews who infiltrated the elite long ago and turned it out, and the politics of London are literally squabbles between jews and their imported arab cousins as we saw in the last election between Sadiq Kahn (SP?) and the jew Goldsmith.

After the Brexit vote (which isn't happening BTW) a Rothschild jew was put on the case and has been making sure it goes nowhere. These kikes have total control of that place now and are flexing their desert/semite totalitarian nature over it.

Only white people care about free speech so it's no surprise that semites obliterate it as soon as they're allowed full control. And it's only going to get worse until these jews are purged.

More than that, but he was mentioned to indicate how long jews have been breeding into the English elite. And to show that even small amounts of jewish blood are apparently still plenty to sway one's allegiances away from the homeland.

I'm not against banning books in principle but the problem with these people is that they don't have any definitions of "hate speech" or "harmful" that can be applied universally to all groups, so in practice banning harmful literature becomes a way to arbitrarily silence legitimate political opponents instead of forwarding the social good. I think they purposely keep their rules vague so they can avoid being held to the same standard.

Book banning is a slippery slope. The question is who will have the power to ban books and what will they ban? Once you allow it, it's hard to take that power away from whoever wields it.
