Adolf Hitler Mein Kampf should stuff like this be banned

[Spillage]

I've not read the book & chances are, i never will . But as it's readily available in most countries, i suspect it isn't quite the outright rabid & hatefilled publication you'd expect . It's probably a valuable historical incite into the developement of a monster , so it should be available .
Chances are, would-be nazis would get bored of it, not enough fire & blood for their stunted brains .

I am against all kinds of censorship. Especially on the internet.

So where do you stand on kiddie porn filth?

HI i just entered revtt and to my surprise i saw this torrent(Adolf Hitler Mein Kamp) i think there should be some sort of censorship on torrents that are uploaded especially when it comes to such sensitive subjects like this shout and and post your opinion

You learn from the mistakes of history, you don't deny that they ever happened

I forgot those kind of horrible things for a second I guess. So my statement is terribly wrong I fear.

Mein Kampf (or my struggle) is more a biography of Adolf Hitlers early years than it is a political manifesto anyway, and a fairly disjointed rambling it is, but as others have said this is a part of history. The choice you have to exercise if you do not agree with a torrent is do not download it, but you cannot say that others should not be able to ? This is a text which is studied in Universities, a foundation text of National Socialism which was a historical political movement from a very turbulent time in European history. Do not get me wrong I in no way condone the horrific mass genocide which was the second world war, but that was far in the future when Mein Kampf was written, and it is a historical document.

I think main kampf is interest...

You can´t censor history.
You have to learn from it, as Barbarossa said.

I believe in Theory of attitudinal inoculation...which basically says: if people have never been exposed to weak counterarguments to beliefs they hold, they are especially vulnerable to strong arguments later. Similar to how, injection of stronger from of virus (in the form of vaccination) helps our body to create antibodies and later when the weaker version of virus tries to effect us...the body is ready to defend it.

I think everyone should read this (except those who easily get influenced by other people's ideas). I believe knowing these stuff will help prevent us from creating another Hitler. The past is there to be learned from, not to burn.

P.S. i will grab it later...just so i can get further glance to his sick mind.

Banning and burning books ( as history as showed us time and time again )of any kind is one of the exact foundations of ideologies like nazism and in which institutions like the Inquisition were based.

I completely understand your concern but we just have to deal with our history.

As someone already said, if a site/tracker is dedicated to spreading hate and, in the process, releases only material to support that objective that would be, IMO, different. I think this is not clearly the case.

Cheers!

No.
People are required to read it in some history courses etc...

Censorship ironically was a big thing for the nazis... Why are you suggesting that torrents sites become more like them?

Banning a book is no solution. Everything has some value, and this book is one of the popular biographies(autobiography?) out in the world. You will find out there are a lot of things you would know from the book, and if you are as responsible as you say, you will take a lesson from that piece.
