The Youngkin Campaign

The Republican candidate for governor of Virginia is closing his campaign with a vicious, cynial attack on – on books.

He is running ads supporting a demand to ban the work of Nobel and Pulitzer Prize novelist Toni Morrison.

We must always be wary of historical comparisons, most especially to the greatest evil ever to befall the planet and humankind.

But this one, necessarily is apt. This, ultimately and always, is what book banner Glenn Youngkin, that Republican candiate for governor of Virginia, is selling.

  1. Excellent. Also, maybe I missed it, but I haven’t heard Youngkin yet try to ban Mein Kampf. And a question: How do you relate, if at all, the Facebook controversy to this issue? Is the banning of certain content from social media comparable to banning books?
