``Yes, they do, and we can play both sides of that game -- promoting good books, and demoting bad ones. ''
Incidentally, I prefer to read a book before I decide on whether it's good or bad.

I prefer to read a book before I decide on whether it's good or bad. I'm not asking anyone to review a book he hasn't read. I'm asking you to recommend other books in addition to the book, and the complain about "Mein Kampf" being used as a comparison to "Treason." I don't think one would need to read either of these books to know it is an inappropriate recommendation.

LOL! If NAMBLA publishes a book, I'm not reading it unless it's for opposition purposes. Same with Hellery. Assumption is necessary more often than not in order to ever make any progress. Giving liberalism a chance should only last for a limited number of years of certain peoples' lives [not everyone's life, of course], IMHO-- preferably no more than three years. It's an important phase for people who want to understand things in depth, but making 'fairness to the leftwing viewpoint' a lifetime obligation is a waste of precious time.
