It happens, I misplaced my airborne brigade only a week ago.

From the article, talking about the complaints citing the Moms for Liberty rating system:

“Anne Frank’s Diary” and “Maus” both rate a “2” on BookLooks, with the site’s objections to the latter described as “hate involving antisemitism and racism; violence; nonsexual nudity; and mild/infrequent profanity.”

Would you look at that: non-sexual nudity, oh the shock and horror, children might learn that underneath clothes people are naked 😱

As shown by the complaint quoted in the article they're removing these books because they discuss historical horrors, violence, and hate, therefore your argument holds no water at all.

"Russian military stocks? Dump it."

"NATO? Pump it."

Literally the article.

the propaganda that is an attack on people that want to sensor books.

How is this propaganda?

Also you are completely incorrect. Those books are ABSOLUTELY are about history and learning.

Anne Frank's Dairy is a first hand historical account of life an oppressed and genocided group under facism. Maus is another recollection of first-hand historical accounts of a polish Jew being interviewed by his son but shown visually in a cartoon graphic novel to make the context more visually palatable for a younger audience without avoiding the horrific events of history.

What next? Are you going to claim the Horrible History books are neither educational or historical as well?

Usually Nodachi and his harem.

I literally said the opposite. How did you come to that conclusion?

Um I can think of a few differences but I think the major one is that one of the geriatric fucks actually promised to end democracy in the US.

So, maybe don't back his team?

Well if it ends up in civil war, can you at least launch the nukes and end the whole world as well, I'm kind of done being alive and going out with everyone else is probably the best excuse for not continuing on.

History is uncomfortable. Revising it to tell lovely stories is all well and good for building a national identity.

However, sugar-coating, ignoring, or even flat-out erasing parts of history benefits no one. People started writing events down accurately because the orators of old never intended paint an accurate picture of the past. And therefore lessons learnt from the failures of humanity (lost causes, preventable catastrophies, perspectives of people on the wrong side, genocides, etc.) were also lost.

History should be uncomfortable, so we can collectively learn and have a chance to do better the next time.

You do realise that there's a version of Mien Kampf that's four times as long because there's several experts annotating and debunking Hitler's ideas right there on the page.

Here's my prediction:

Russia send the NK troops forwards in human waves, mostly under armed with all of the rusty waves. The NK troops surrender when given the chance. Russia waits for the surrendering NK troops to get the Ukrainian troops out of cover and then opens up with artillery and FPV drones on both the Ukrainian troops and NK defectors.

You see the US DoD's funding of FPS games is a long term plan for when everything on the battlefield is a drone therefore, fitness levels not being a requirement, they'll have the best trained UGV, USV, UAV pilots.

Also I'm pretty sure the foul voice chat practice is going to be such an effective electromagnetic-cyber-psychological cross-domain weapon, it's use will be banned as a warcrime under the Geneva Convention of 2052.
