     @lelouchebag @Moon kinda mid tbh, I'm sure there are way deeper cuts than this (also with respect to mein kampf in particular hitler was an absolutely dreadful writer so I wouldn't read it even if you paid me to)

     @allison @Moon I know a lot of "banned books" where the author got threatened by the government for outlining how to effectively revolt. I remember one was on hosting secret meetups utilizing dead drops and how to shoot power transformers (i think they used a bb gun or some sort too) to quickly take down a grid in a set area

     @sun_eater @lelouchebag @Moon doesn't matter, a lot of censors saw it as straightforward obscenity when it first came out and banned it (same with a lot of tamer works as well)

     @lelouchebag @Moon Lolita is banned? I though everyone saw it as anti-pedophilia criticism

     @sun_eater @Moon @lelouchebag without the meta understanding of what nabokov meant the meaning to be, it definitely can come off that way

     @allison @Moon @lelouchebag i mean i read some of it (not the full thing so i might be biased), and it did sound like just obscenity to me

     @sun_eater @Moon @lelouchebag if we can swing over to something else which is semi related, I challenge everyone to list their favorite works on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_authors_and_works_on_the_Index_Librorum_Prohibitorum

     @Moon I’m not sure it was ever banned, but I think Steal This Book deserves more visibility.
