MARK JUDGE: The liberal hypocrisy over ‘banned books.’

I have a challenge for Politics and Prose, the famous bookstore in Washington, D.C.

Sell my book. That’s it. That’s the challenge.

Of course, Politics and Prose would never carry my book. The Left cries a river about the banning of books while refusing to see or read books that challenge their political orthodoxy.

P & P advertises itself as open-minded, diverse (of course), LGBTQ, and, most elementally, against the banning of books. Every year they virtue signal about “Banned Books Week.” Former President Barack Obama shops at Politics and Prose, and wrote an essay about the importance of reading what you want: “That’s why I’m celebrating Banned Books Week and the freedom to read with people across the country,” he said. “Because the ability to learn about each other and engage with different ideas doesn’t just open our minds and broaden our perspectives — it brings communities together and strengthens our democracy.”
