Why are Christian Bookstores Allowed to Ban Books?

It’s amazing (or maybe entirely predictable) how Demontree continually refuses to answer questions as to whether she thinks Amazon should be able to decline from selling books that advocate for the legalization of pedophilia, or for re-enslaving black people, etc. At most she’ll give some milquetoast “maybe” and then pretend it doesn’t matter.

But that’s the whole issue. If you think it’s okay for them to decline from selling pro-pedophilia books, then there’s no broad philosophical disagreement – it’s just about where to draw the line.

And that’s really what the debate has been all along. Some conservatives are pissed that the line has changed – that no longer was it, generally, just minorities, women, etc., who dared challenged the white supremacist and patriarchal status quo getting “canceled” – now conservative whites face the possibility of what they used to dish out.

Just another demonstration that the fundamental basis of modern conservatism is that there must be an in-group for whom the law protects but does not bind, and everyone else, whom the law binds but does not protect.
