    Hey I want y’all to know that I’m locking this, but:

    I agree with OP. Burning Harry Potter books doesn’t hurt anyone. No one here would give a shit if it was burning a copy of some horrid book. And Harry Potter isn’t going to be out of print any time soon.

    When Nazis did it, it was a complete removal of the only copies of a queer library in Germany. OP can’t do that to Harry Potter.

    I’m only locking this to save the mod team and the admins the headache. I can only expect transphobia, ableism, and “but that nazis also burned books!!! youre as bad as the nazis!!!”.

          I don’t know, burning a pile of copies of mein kampf would be pretty based, I think it really depends on the book.

            Kind of embarrassing for you that right above this you started shit in the comments

            Edit: This comment before I changed it said “Really unfortunate you’re choosing not to engage.”

              Really unfortunate you think someone with a disability owes you something. it’s a meme. this is a meme group. you want to “engage” someone on it, go post in a discussion group.

              or ya know, go suck my dick, idc either way.

              edit: sick edit, still don’t care if im being “rude”, as your original comment stated, to someone who had to post their super smart observation in response to a meme

                I’m also disabled. That doesn’t mean you can just say/do anything without consequences.

                Nobody said you owed them anything.

                  Easy to say if you didn’t see the original, completely different comment before it was edited. Please shove it with the respectability politics. I am tired, out of spoons and I gave fair warning. I don’t owe anyone politeness, especially so on this topic.

                  You’re right, my mistake. Still don’t give a shit. Still not going to be polite about it. Telling me to engage about this is the same sort of tacit transphobia as saying there’s still a debate to be had about trans people’s right to exist. A vocal minority of fuckwits does not mean there’s cause for a discourse.

        Nah, it’s much closer to Nietzsche’s “Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process they do not become monsters.”

    I do not like the cunt but destroying books is a line even I won’t cross. Just don’t feed into the wizarding world anymore. Move on.
