Relevant xkcd to the FPH banning

"I think Christian book stores should sell copies of Mein Kamp, and that opinion is not me trying to be edgy." Quote /u/mad-lab.

There's a huge difference between not selling books because they are not relevant to some topic, and because you are deliberately deciding that you don't want to sell them because you disagree with them. If a bookstore wants to focus on religious books, then I wouldn't have a problem if it sold religious books and not treatise on economics. If, however, it's a Muslim book store and it refuses to sell books that at Sunni, and only sells books that are from a Shiite perspective, then that's another issue.

So you're saying i just need to say the books I don't like are irrelevant and then it's okay to not sell them? Sweet. Thanks. Do you not see how Mein Kampf is irrelevant to a Christian bookstore? Or how /r/fatpeoplehate is irrelevant to a website that doesn't support its content?

Nothing, which is why I stated, almost from the very beginning, that your responses were useless.

Looooooooooool. Dude have you never seen people discuss their opinions before? Is that a new concept to you?

Had you actually pointed out a flaw in my logic

that was never my intention

this would have been an interesting discussion.

if it's so boring, feel free to stop at any time

However, since you failed miserably at that

it was never my intention

(and it was clear from the beginning when you were implying I said things I didn't)

I NEVER SAID THAT YOU SAID THAT YOU WANTED TO FORCE BOOKSTORES TO CARRY BOOKS THAT THEY DIDN'T WANT TO. JUST THAT THERE IS NO RECOURSE AGAINST THEM DOING SO. You are now implying that I said things that I didn't. how the tables have turned.

then your posts were fucking useless

feel free to stop arguing at any time then

We might as well argue what color you think it's prettiest.

Or we could discuss our opinions about the nature of free speech, which is what I've been trying to do, even though you've been hung up on semantics and word choice and saying that I've implied things in your comments from like 80 comments ago.

I don't care about your opinion, and hopefully you don't care about mine.

Oh...well... then why did you post your opinion in this thread in the first place, you ignorant fuck?

I care about facts.

What facts? What in the literal world are you talking about? We have only been talking about opinions and hypotheticals. Literally no part of this discussion has been about "facts."

You had none.

Because we were literally not talking about facts. Jesus you're a silly silly person.
