    That’s certainly true for some people.

    But I don’t see the Democrats out there banning books.

      Speak for yourself. I’m all for banning ghostwritten books by conservative talking heads so they can launder money and game bestseller lists.

          I mean honestly that’s how it should work. If they’re writing and publishing disinformation that’s not in the “fiction” section then there should be some kind of regulatory backlash (same with news/entertainment etc). It’s like letting someone re-write history textbooks… but I suppose that’s been going on for a long time already.
