Hey, fkup, just noticed in a little-used email account of mine that it had taken you four whole months to craft any rebuttals to my points on a post about census data and electoral maps over at 270toWin, and then the best you could do was to slip in lame &#039;mother references&#039;- really clever at your level of discourse I guess... nice. Also placed right before the comments section was closed, so obviously in addition to engaging in puerile ad hominem attacks, you don&#039;t have the courage of your convictions in an open debate.
Well, I&#039;m used to the ranting, mindless cowards such as yourself online, so it was hard to gt surprised by what you&#039;d spewed.]]></description>

The only ones who thought &quot;Law and Order&#039; and &quot;Silent Majority&quot; were euphemisms for racist views were anybody stupid enough to take the writings of Herbert Marcuse, Theodor Adorno, and the other JAC funded lunatics from the Frankfurt Institute seriously. What Christians have always objected to is Marxsim, because they understand all Marxism is (just as modern progressivism is) is a intellectual ruse to destroy Christianity, just as the seven generations of Talmudic Rabbi&#039;s in the Marx family preached every day. They also saw what leftism/Marxism did to Orthodox Christian Russia and the deaths of 40 million Orthodox Christians in just 25 years under the likes of Kagonovich and Yagoda. The true &quot;dark purpose&quot; is the devotion to Satan, which leftism is, and one only has to look at the devastation of the Black families in just 60 years to realize what those hideous 1960&#039;s laws were all about.]]></description>

Stop embarrassing yourself. Corporations are merged with global Trotskyism and atheistic progressive ideals, they abhor Christianity and they hate national sovereignty. Almost every corporation supports deviant homosexuality, gender and trans agendas, climate alarmism and gaia worship, required diversity and sensitivity training, unlimited fiat circulation, and on and on. You see how they all jumped aboard the BLM wagon (before they realized how much their customers hated the Marxist movement),  and I don&#039;t know any corporate boards having scripture readings and coming out against the abortion and murder of fetuses. This is nothing new, never forget it was Wall Street that funded Lev Bronstein and the Bolsheviks, and when you figure out why, you just might start to get into reality. Try to catch up Skippy.]]></description>

I am simply addressing the issues I see in your comments.  If you remember, all these segregation laws were influenced and made by men, because at that time, women had almost no legal rights and therefore their perspectives were hardly considered relevant in political discourse.  Granting women equal rights also brought in newer perspectives on race relations in America, hence resulted in passing civil rights acts.]]></description>

Libraries, particularly college libraries, are, or should be, places that include many views, some of them antithetical to what you may believe.  They are not, in most cases, places to find only &quot;approved materials.&quot;]]></description>

IOW, Amazon reviews are not a good indicator of the veracity or worthiness of the factual claims in a book, or its general value as a reference. This was the original point in response to your claim - I&#039;m glad you have come to agree. Also, congrats on being able to read 1642 reviews in 45 minutes - quite a talent.

Unless you looked for it, I don&#039;t know why you would know if your college library had Mein Kampf or not. Did you?]]></description>

Amazon is full of glowing reviews for books which contain nonsense. It is the reviews of legitimate historians and others in germane fields that would best be viewed for the accuracy of the contents. I would also bet that your college did in fact have a copy of Mein Kampf. Perhaps if you identify the school and the time frame we could check that. 

BTW, at Amazon, Mein Kampf has a solid 4 stars out of 5, with 54% 5 stars, and only 12% giving 1 star, out of a total 1642 reviews. How much weight does that carry in your review system? Something you want to give serious credibility to?

I didn&#039;t ask why they didn&#039;t have it - you have already said you &quot;didn&#039;t remember them having it.&quot; I asked if you ever specifically looked for it, in order to know one way or the other. As Warren mentioned, even his rather conservative Christian college has a copy - it is an important book to understand a horrific and pivotal time in our history. It is neither conservative nor liberal, it is a historic reference.]]></description>
