Re: Banned Books

[(Anonymous)]

I'm always kind of torn because on one hand I sometimes wish certain topics could be banned or that there needed to be larger disclaimers on when stuff is just author opinion and not in any way backed by science.

Like I ended up tossing a book that a relative bought to give to their teenage daughter that was something like "Improving Mental Health without Drugs or Medication!" that they thought would be like mindfulness and meditation, and I skimmed the first chapter that was all "Mental illness isn't real you're just an awful person, depression is a lie by Big Pharma, 'rice' is a brand name for plastic unnatural hybrid food and increases your body alkalinity and causes cancer." So I pointed that out, they were horrified, and agreed that it was awful and should be tossed out. They just... couldn't believe something awful like that could get published and put in the self-help section so they didn't double check it.

But at the same time I KNOW, I know, that someone has to make those judgement calls and I don't want Mr. "rice is a plastic" making them. So the current system has its flaws, but it's better than any other system.
