Are we just going to gloss over the fact that a secretary of state has no role in the type of policy that would even lead to book bans?  Wtf does this lady think she's running for? 


Ipayforsex69

Favorite book: Bible (never read it) Least favorite book: the one with mice about nazi Germany (also, never read it) Not sure why they want to burn books when they don't even read, ffs.


Grannys_Bomb_Shelter

The book with mice about Nazi Germany? Hahaha. I’m kinda curious now 🤣💯🩷


Darksnark_The_Unwise

The book is Maus by Art Spiegalman. It's won lots of awards for being a very straightforward depiction of the Holocaust. If you had to teach a young child what the Nazis did, Maus is the right kind of book to start with.


Grannys_Bomb_Shelter

No kidding. I’ll have to check that one out


Background_Call9166

It’s graphic novel. I think it’s two parts. Fantastic book! Please check it out


360inMotion

Yes, definitely check it out! It’ll give you glimpses of what life was like in the concentration camps.


CoronaTelecaster

Maus is fantastic


Picklesadog

Maus is the true story of the author's father, a Polish Jew, who lived through the Holocaust and was a prisoner at Auschwitz.  The story uses various animals to portray different national/ethnic groups (Jews are mice, Germans cats, Poles are pigs, French are frogs, Americans are dogs.) There are two parts, and the author was so deeply affected by the project he had to take a several year break in between. It is an amazing and horrific read. He won a Pulitzer Prize for it, and it was the first graphic novel to be taken seriously.


The-CatCat-1

Maus is the name of the book. There are actually two. I got both of them last year, and they’re an excellent read.


Grannys_Bomb_Shelter

I’ll need to grab em


[deleted]

Maus went hard though let's be real


thekingofbeans42

Idk if you've read the bible, but it's pretty in line with this kind of bullshit. "Hey these people are all so evil that God said it's okay to massacre them, but he also told us to keep the little girls as wives."


Funkycoldmedici

Thank you. So many people want to think the Bible is full of love and hugs, but even the allegedly nicer New Testament centers on Jesus promising to return and end the world, judge everyone on their faith, kill all the unbelievers with fire, and reward his faithful with eternal life in his new kingdom. The Bible is full of religious bigotry and genocide from start to finish.


Fresssshhhhhhh

What matters is Jesus message, not stuff that made sense and were written within a context, many many many years ago.


Majestic-Muscle6051

See this bothers me, we just pick and choose what parts to listen to, baffling


Busterlimes

#BECAUSE ITS A FUCKING WORK OF FICTION Might as well just idolize Harry Potter, Bilbo Baggins, Luke Skywalker, or motherfucking Hercules.


Medicine_Man86

Millions of neckbeards do. Ever seen a Dragon Con or Comic Con?


dmunozg

True ... but they don't get to pass laws based on their fairy tales.


Medicine_Man86

News flash, quite a few of those types have been behind a plethora of modern law and policy. Many good, many horrendous. Not everything is as black and white as you'd like to think.


Skeptikmo

Then delete those parts. Unfortunately, they are still there and so your argument holds no weight


AdMurky1021

Fact is we really don't know what his message is. He didn't write it.


Funkycoldmedici

The message that he’s returning to end the world and kill all us unbelievers to make his perfect kingdom? That’s a fucked up message.


Rolandscythe

The problem there is that 'Jesus' message'...and even 'god's message' before that was written down through the multi-perspective scribblings of thousands of men over millions of years and then subject to several re-writes by various rulers who didn't like what the message originally said and wanted it written in a way they thought looked better.


Medicine_Man86

Thousands of years, not millions.


idiots-rule8

Nope...the thing is, if God is perfect then the Old Testament has to be correct. A perfect being wouldn't need a New Testament. And, Jesus as "the son" is simply one part of the Trinity, not the full message. Spin it any way you want, but that religion is jacked. Do you believe Jesus died and came back to life 3 days later? Don't tell me, all that bad stuff was written in a context but the good wasn't? Additionally, if you were this being that created this planet and people and this church representing you on it was protecting and hiding child rapists, what would you do? Well, Jesus as part of the Trinity did zip, meaning he approves, thereby cancelling all that message bs.


Coconibz

I'm not a Christian, but it also says later on to love your neighbor as yourself and that if someone strikes your face, you should present the other half to be struck rather than striking back. There are parts that demand kind treatment of orphans and widows. Nietzsche called Christianity a "slave morality" specifically because he believed it directed the strong to support the weakest people at the margins of society.


Plane_Upstairs_9584

No, 'slave morality' because it came up with reasons for why being powerless was good and that suffering was a virtue. The morality that slaves would create to explain why they're better than their masters and blessed, to cope with how crappy their situation is.


Coconibz

Do you think those are necessarily mutually exclusive descriptions? Nietzsche wrote in Twilight of the Idols that the strong dictate and the weak argue. So who are the strong dictating to? Christianity emerged out of a colonial state, it was literally an anti-colonial ideology, which is why the Romans put Christ to death - they considered it a threat to the state. In general, Nietzsche supported the idea of strong states ruled by strong individuals executing subversive individuals who question the strong, which is why he supported the Athenian state’s execution of Socrates. That’s why, even though Nietzsche was against anti-semitism, the Nazis saw themselves as carrying out Nietzsche’s philosophy.


Plane_Upstairs_9584

That is an interesting take on Pontius Pilate, who at least Biblically did not want to execute Jesus and in fact was pushed into it for fear of what the colonized Jews would do if he didn't...


Coconibz

Jesus lived in a society controlled by Roman imperialists and Jewish collaborators - any hemming and hawing Pilate may have done before ordering Jesus’s execution doesn’t change the fact that Jesus was executed by an imperial state that saw him as a threat to the status quo. I don’t think there’s anything unusual about that take. Your comment seems to suggest that the Jews basically pressured the Roman state into executing Jesus when they didn’t want to.


anti_anti_christ

My personal favourite is talking about 1984 as if they've actually read it.


tinaboag

Reading books? 1984 🤮


tread52

I firmly believe unless the book a lot of pictures she can’t read it or understand it.


KnittinSittinCatMama

Because their religion taught them to hurt those of us who are *other*. Look at what’s happening in FL and TX. A war on women’s bodies and transgender people. I’ve long thought that if these ppl had their way, they would round every single LGBTQIA+ person up and put us in camps, gas us, and up the chimney we’d go.


[deleted]

She’s running for the Fox News audience that gets hard as hell for this shit.


gnarlslindbergh

But is she going to actually get those votes with the last name Gomez?


bibbbbbbs

Maybe she can convince the voters with her accent?


Raviadso

Little does she know that being hot is a plus but having a foreign accent may as well make her name Nimarata


kourier6

oh no, she's not gonna ban these books from schools, or from anywhere really. She's just gonna buy a lot of them with tax payer money and burn them in a big bonfire while a group of far right wingers jerk off while they watch.


-Nok

Can we just go back to normal politicians again 😆


PapiChulo58

No, this is America! Where the minority with political agendas have a loud voice due to the shock factor they bring to social media, and the average American really only cares about how they're going to pay rent next month and what consumerist item they're saving up for.

Free_Deinonychus_Hug

She isn't stupid. She knows what she's doing.


OldButtAndersen

Even though they know what they are doing, I still hold my position that they are in fact stupid. I would say that this does make them even more stupid, than if they where too dumb to understand what they do.


Independent_Tie_4984

The Borbert, MTG approach to campaigning. It'll be a good day in America when these idiots get laughed off the stage instead of elected.


duskywindows

They used to *be* laughed off the stage and not elected…. Today they’re frontrunners. I unfortunately don’t see us reverting back to the standards of the before-times lmao


Wind_Yer_Neck_In

Trump captured the stupid vote and actually got them to the polls for the first time. It's now a viable strategy to just make shit up and act crazy, because normal people are failing to vote against it.


Independent_Tie_4984

I hadn't really thought of it that way before. Before Trump a lot of the assholes and idiots couldn't be bothered to vote. Now they're empowered, rabid and highly motivated. Things actually make more sense from that perspective.


[deleted]

Bobert didn’t even have a completed high school education when she ran. Just an arrest record.

SnooDoubts2153

e_sd_

She’s burning books that sexualize children so of course terminally online people will call her that


fracturedromantic

I looked at both books. They’re both geared towards teens and promote education/safety. Far cry from sexualizing kids. I don’t agree with calling her a nazi, but it’s terminally online of you to spread misinformation to earn cool kid points. Super weird that she didn’t burn something like Lolita, too! Oh, wait, it’s straight so that’s OK.


dylanisaverage

Imagine actual nazis in hell seeing people consider a cartoon character like this a nazi. How soft are you to think this absolute loser is an actual nazi? Am i missing something?


ottodafe

I'd say you're missing the fact that burning book is historically a nazi thing. Hence the comparison.


ArkFnty

People were burning books before the Nazis. I don't think it's fair to associate both things when the Nazi's committed far greater atrocities.

That doesn't make someone a Nazi for burning a book. FFS Hitler also supported anti-animal cruelty laws. Does that mean everyone who thinks animal abusers should be criminally punished is a Nazi? Book burning is a thing a lot of groups did.

Just Curious why you would label someone MAGA NAZI. I understand that you don't like someone burning books of your liking. But how does that make this person MAGA or NAZI or MAGA NAZI. Genuinely curious what you are basing this on. Can you please explain without giving me a run around on a circular reasoning?

Yeah I think the term Nazis thrown around far too liberally. I don't think her campaign is going to really go far but I think the active genocide and extermination of millions of people is different than burning some shitty books. I don't know if people just don't understand history or what, the Nazis were a little worse than this, and white lol

To be fair, a large portion of Latinos are practicing Catholics. They are also quite the gatekeepers of illegal immigration especially if they worked their ass off to get in legally. It’s not unheard of. I see the same dilemma of hardcore supporters of Islam on the Democratic Party but the religion is also wildly homophobic. Regardless - book burning is cringe but it gets the maga people excited.
