As a free speech advocate, I'm opposed to this ridiculous banning* from a school library (Correction: curriculum. It remains available in the library, I believe) (even if it is for puritanical, not anti-semitic, reasons, as the minutes claim). > their real complaint is that some community won't let them come in The "community" is usually a giant multinational corporation like Google, Twitter, Facebook, or Amazon. I'm sure you can find some "free speech advocates" that complain when a neighborhood association denies them a protest permit, or an admin on a small forum bans them, but that's not exactly steel-manning their cause, is it? *While schools have a legitimate right to decide which books they'll stock in their libraries, this book is both already in their library, and important enough, that the shorthand of calling it a "ban" seems appropriate. They do claim they'll replace it with a book providing equivalent lessons, but that doesn't mean that this book isn't getting banned, just that (taking them at their word) their motives aren't anti-semitic.
