I haven't read this particular manifesto, and won't. But I do disagree with writings being outlawed.
That probably seems like an odd position to take, but the extreme counter-example is there was a year when the US Declaration of Independence was a violence-inciting manifesto.
I'm not saying this guy's manifesto is like the Declaration of Independence of course. What I'm saying is, if I live in a society that has to outlaw BOTH or NEITHER, I choose neither.
