Yeah I guess ban and boycott mean different things to me, but you’re right. Functionally this is a boycott and I support boycotting this movie. Fair point.

Mein Kampf actually isn’t banned in the US or most of the world. It’s banned in Germany for obvious reasons.

Lol fascism got into power because there is a revolutionary mood in the air and the capitalists have spent a century banning the idea of socialism at every turn. I feel very confident that socialism would have become popular if there wasn’t an active effort to stymie it’s adoption by the masses.

So yes the marketplace of ideas is rigged.

Banning books, like banning movies, is a great way to admit publicly that your position is so weak you can’t tolerate any dissent. Let the power of your ideals stand on their own.

Edit: ok I’m going to leave this up here because I’m a masochist, but ok I get it. I’m with you guys. Boycott Gal Godot. Ban is functionally a boycott. In the US, this movie would never get banned, but I would 100% boycott it. I didn’t fully think this through and I agree with most of you guys.

While I have no interest in this movie and I think Gal Godot sucks, banning movies is akin to banning books.

Thanks bro!

I would like one
