... I've just stumbled across this on the BBC News website and I'm trying to think of the implications ... what does it say about us? (I dread to think ) ... and how many of you have actually read Mein Kampf by Hitler?

"Customers who bought books about Margaret Thatcher's time in office also bought CDs by Enya and Sarah Brightman. Those who bought Mein Kampf also picked music by Eric Clapton and Prince, while those who chose George Bush Sr's musings also like the nu-metal band Creed. These choices are revealed in a new book by LA artist Angie Walker, who mined the records of the online bookseller Amazon for shoppers' preferences."

That could explain the rampant racism that seems to expressed quite often by those who claim to be Prince fans or post at a website named after him.

Reading "Mein Kampf" wouldn't have to be linked to anything sinister, researching historical evil isn't restricted to neo-nazis.

5/9
Now if we could just get the ratio of those who bought
"Mein Kampf" and "The Turner Diaries" we could find out how dedicated they were to their reseach

yes, it's logical: he's got a dictatorial mind, no more a dirty one..

Actually, that's the bit that surprised me ... because I haven't personally come into contact with any fans that are racist. I don't know enough about the book to know whether Hitler writes about his policies on genocide or racism though.

Essence said:

Absolutely, Essence ... I agree.

A few have exposed themselves on this site (in other forums) on occasion.

I never read it and somebody once called me a Sexy Ava Bruen. So was that a Complement or a Negative? I feel VERY Sad about what has Happened with the Holocaust. It was a Terrible and VERY Tragic Time. I for one don't want to read about things in this vein. I'd Rather dwell in the Light and not go There.

How the fuck can they make a connection between those who like 2 get down and funky with those who take an interest in Lebensraum and Social Darwinism?!
