Showing Original Post only (View all)Neo Nazis In California Cancel Planned Book Burning Because Fear Of Liberals [View all]
Juan Cadavid organized a book-burning event with Brian Enright of the Three Percenters to be held at Huntington State Beach in California. The event was dubbed Burning Degeneracy CA, but they have recently decided to cancel the event out of fear.
According to The OC Weekly, the group advertised the Aug. 19 event by telling people that it was time to purge their homes, State, and country of degenerate literature.
This includes literature of Marxism, Communism, Bolshevism, literature with liberal, democratic tendencies/attitudes, and writings supporting the decline of Western Culture, the event description read. Books on sexuality and sexual education which serves to indoctrinate the life of degeneracy, such as Cosmo and Teen Vogue should be brought to the fire as well. We will also burn the Koran, publications such as Karl Marx, and more. We must create a future without degeneracy for our children.
As news of the event spread across California liberal groups on Facebook, people gathered to troll the event page. Citing President Donald Trumps use of the term alt-left to allege a violent uprising was happening among liberals that is akin to Nazis, Cadavids group canceled the event and deleted their page.
I do not want to go into a long explanation at this time, Cadavid began. The event was in no way intended to eradicate these publications, more a symbolic way of showing that we do not approve of what is being taught to our children and maybe that should have been made clearer, I do not endorse the censorship of literature or personal political views in any way.

Hey Nazis:
1. You don't give a rat's ass about children, so stop pretending like you care.
2. If we held a book burning where we burned O'Reilly, Hannity, Limbaugh, Coulter, Savage, etc books, you guys would be *FLYING* off the rails and insisting we all be locked up.
So shut the fuck up and get the fuck out.

OP
They checked their homes and the only books to be found dealt with roadkill cooking.

Book burning is an exercise of privilege, but done by groups claiming persecution

I think what these asses are afraid of are their faces being shared on the internet.

wanting to censor sexually explicit material is a common agenda item for right-wing fascists.
