They burned bullshit feminist fantasy like harry potter, twilight and 50 shades of grey - absolute waste of paper whose authors deserve to burn along with the books. And, sadly, it was a single priest and his followers, nothing big yet.
I haven't even read any of those books, but that's such a retarded thing to do. You won't achieve shit by burning a few "feminist" books at your local church. Literally just a waste of time and fuel lmao
Agreed, it needs to be better organized, and in sync with the institutions of a coercive state. A book burning should only be the public-facing kickoff celebration of a broader campaign against degeneracy, which doesn't necessarily need to be as publicised.

Yes let's burn all Christian books.
Oh, that's not what you meant?
Better idea, how about we launch campaign against little "morality policemen" like you? Perhaps a couple years spent in prison and paying off exorbitant fines would teach you to keep your nose to yourself. We are not a hive species and you will either learn to respect others freedom or you will be forced to, which personally would be my pure pleasure.
ps. The entire incident is seriously sick and dangerous and the place where it happened has slided into fascistic theocracy some time ago now. Honestly it looks like polish fash endgame is basically creating some sort of weird-ass neocambodia, giving people fuckloads of money for every cow and pig they posses is the first step, making life slowly morew and more obtuse for city dwellers would be the second, as for the last I predict they'll eventually just run folks from the cities, whether under some pretenses or not and force them into some large, nationalized farms(we even have some of those remaining from the commie years, thewy'll probably gonna use 'em)
It has to be a satire site when its posters claim Fifty Shades of Grey and Twilight are feminist. Either that, or fascism is still idiotic, with its anti-intellectual suckers filing everything they don't like in one place.
I'm pretty sure that nowadays, the hardcore feminists hate Harry Potter for having too many male characters. That and JK Rowling constantly trying to score diversity points be retroactively declaring that the lady who served Harry a lemon ice when he visited the zoo was a nonbinary otherkin demiboy.
But on a more serious note, book burning wouldn't be nearly as effective today as it was in centuries past. Thanks to the Internet, unless you have control of the entire world, as long as the people whose work you would burn can get their work scanned and sent somewhere safe, you're going to have a long task in front of you.
Harry Potter a feminist story? No
Twilight? It tries but all the characters are horrible.
Fifty shades? It's bondage porn.
"absolute waste of paper whose authors deserve to burn along with the books."
So, if we're threatened by books, we should be able to burn the authors?
How about, if we feel threatened by those who would burn the authors, we get to burn THEM, first? Would that be fair?
I don't really want to burn people, or books. Just wondering how you'd justify drawing a line, here. Threats = self-defense burning unless.... ?
Yup, those books being feminists is indeed bullshit, dearie.
All the feminists I know loathe 50 Shades with a passion. Some did burn the books, as they are more useful as heating energy than reading material. I can't remember a single feminist liking Twilight either; a weak pretty-girl fawning over a pretty-boy vampire. Where's the empowerment in that?
How many feminists do you know, Pimmy?
50 shades of grey - absolute waste of paper whose authors deserve to burn along with the books
This parody of such by Dr. Stuart Ashen - "50,000 Shades of Grey" - can go for as much as £80 on Amazon: used :

If you don't want to be burned by Ashens' blowtorch - which is the ultimate fate of those things not destined for the Shelf of Interesting Items - then you must give Slepp the Idol your bones, OP.
Oh sorry, you missed your exit. The Road to Damnation and the Dark Ages is about five miles back that direction. Sorry, you'll have to leave your car at the turnoff and approach on foot. Sandals only, and you'll only have the moon to light your way.
Watch out for brigands and thugs. And don't mess with the wolves.
Since when are Twilight and 50 Shades feminist. Just because a book has a female lead doesn't automatically make it feminist.
Guess PublicMoralityPolice would really hate something like 'The Braided Path' trilogy- where complex female characters do battle against a misogynistic order of deranged monks in creepy masks.
...one day, I want to just crash one of these idiots' book-burnings with a fire extinguisher.
I don't even like Twilight, or Fifty Shades of Grey. But burning books because they don't line up with your values is an awful thing to do.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
