Product link Amazon reviews: A GREAT way to get WAY more eyes on the best books.
#18
Amazon DOES NOT SUPPORT THE FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE CONSTITUTION.
No more effective censor than the seller, eh?
Break the logistics chain and censors are not required.
Nothing new, examine the depublishing of Fletcher Prouty's "Secret Team", long before Amazon's games of lies about literacy promotion.

Do I buy from Amazon, Yes.
BUT I have begun to search locally for NON_CHAIN BookStores to support.

1. Better prices by 20%
2. I get to meet other humans and talk about this good book or that rotten piece of Toilet paper with a binding.
3. No waiting for your purchase.
4. You don't have to pay for anything before holding the item in your hand.
5. No inaccurate description of the items possible.

I for one would rather spend my money with Book dealers like Andy W.'s Last Hurrah Bookstore
(I can't begin to spell the man's name without looking it up).
and the like private unfranchised bookstores.

I limit Amazon purchases to things I cannot find ANYWHERE else.
I hope they noticed but I doubt they even give a shit.
Read not to contradict and confute;
nor to believe and take for granted;
nor to find talk and discourse;
but to weigh and consider.
