This feels weird to me. Book bans I'm wholly against. But also throwing people in jail for burning paper seems strange as well. Like, I'm queer as hell and used to be religious. But if you want to wrap a Bible in a rainbow flag and burn it, then whatever. Waste of resources. But throwing people in prison over something some fraction of any population believes in (without violence, racism or hatespeech) seems excessive and favors religion.
Violence, hatespeech, racism, banning books, obviously all bets are off. I just wish everyone could dial back everything about 10 notches.
As a German any burning of books feels weird to me. Especially when done by racists to show how much they hate minorities
According to the law, you can't wrap a Bible in a rainbow flag and burn it either. 'The law criminalizes the "inappropriate treatment of writings with significant importance for a recognized religious community."'
