Anonymous Coward User ID: 79251998 United States 02/24/2021 12:09 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Retail giant made policy change sometime prior to purging from its store "When Harry Became Sally," a book criticizing transgender ideology. Quoting: Craiglang Sometime before this week, when it removed from its digital shelves a book critical of transgender ideology, Amazon altered its content policy to explicitly forbid books that promote "hate speech," a major rule change that could be used to rationalize action against a broader range of books sold by the digital retail giant. Amazon this week yanked "When Harry Became Sally: Responding to the Transgender Movement" from its main web store, its Kindle servers and its audiobook lineup with no explanation, even as the book had been available on the site for three years with no apparent controversy. . Thats what happens when you trust Kindle too much. Amazon wow digital books are so great, green, convinient easy accessible one click and you can read, they are even better for propaganda machine. Eveything "smart" is realy used by "dumb" people, look around you how many "smart" items you have close by. YOU ARE THE PROBLEM . |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 69875445 all they did was emboldened the trans to have more rights, all the while taking away yours making you all wear masks The stupidity of you assholes is really highlighted in this post. I mean honest to God, blaming Trump for the transgender movement? How can someone honestly suggest that while at the same time ignoring what the democrats have done to push transgenders on us? And then he blamed trump for masks. I mean wow. Fine, blame trump for masks, but don't ignore the fact that Biden has mandated they be worn and trump did not. If you're going to blame trump for masks you have to include Biden. He's done nothing to stop it. |

About time authors and publishers file a lawsuit against Amazon and form a union. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 75725610 However, it is prophesied to happen. Behold, the days come, saith the Lord GOD, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD: Well ... if God is in control of the universe (which God is, otherwise God wouldnt be God) that means God made it happen. So how and why would God be mad, if God made it happen? |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 2609537 Canada 02/24/2021 12:54 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The Loblaws groups had stopped stocking action and adventure books as well as popular western novellas for a long while. They wanted to edit our entertainment choices. Strong man bad. Unrealistic strong woman good. All they did was kill book sales. After the first couple of times buying woke books from their remaining selection most of us who still buy books, stopped buying from them. There's at least one author that I am never going to buy again. And usually I would buy his new books without even reading the summary. His last one, a woke experiment in fiction, his inherit talent does attempt to save the book. Sadly the book is one of few I had to stop reading never to continue. I did not throw it away. I did give it to a woke friend. |
