“These people are sick and disgusting.”

Somebody at the town hall needs to call the ones objecting, haters.

Hi.

““He is an icon of hate speech and transphobia and the fact that he’s an icon of white supremacy, regardless of the content of his book, I’m not proud to work for a company that publishes him,” a junior employee who is a member of the LGBTQ community and who attended the town hall told VICE World News.”

Orwell was a prophet.

The shooting may start sooner than I think.

So - Find a job where you would b proud.

There must be some homo bars or bath houses in the area that need someone to swab out the Glory Holes and scrape the condoms off the floor.

Lost it right there!

the fact that he’s an icon of white supremacy

These people are truly unhinged. I always knew Hitler would be reincarnated as a soft-spoken Canadian.

Non binary friend? Maybe some who uses computers with base 3 arithmetic rather than everyone else who uses some variety of base 2.

“When it looks down it cannot discern which set of genitalia is down there.”

If not micro-genitalia to go with the micro-cranium, perhaps the zir has MEGA-ABDOMEN and can’t see either moose-knuckle or wiggle worm. And at any rate, no stretch yoga pants allowed.

Sounds like there is an opportunity to start a conservative friendly publishing house.

There’s actually a small amount of independent publishing companies who have emerged that either publish badthink or out of print books that were neglected for political reasons. Some even will print on demand samizdat copies of books that still have copyright claims and are being suppressed by the holder.

One example is some random guy on Twitter published the memoirs of Pytor Wrangel, the general of the Anti-Bolshevik White Army during the Russian Civil War. Prior to that, the last English printing was done in the 1950s by a University Press and cost over $900. Now you can buy it on Amazon for around $15.

>> You can laugh at them all you want, but these hysterical freaks control the publishing industry. <<

It’s worse than that. In a few years these snowflakes will realize the failure of their ways, and that they are broke, and wrong, and simply vote themselves your 401k.

Don’t worry, it’ll be completely legal.

Yes, thumbs up for Seabury Quinn’s Jules de Grandin. I would love to see a properly done series but I’m sure it would have all of the best stuff removed in favor of stupid politically correct ideology, which would ruin it.

Not yet, but less than a single generation away.

We shook our heads and laughed at “everyone gets a trophy” so as not to hurt their little feelings. But it’s led to an entire generation unable to deal with anything that makes them feel bad or is “hurtful”.

We’re soon to be led by a nation of miserable, ill-adjusted non-achievers.
