FACT is that you tried to reframe stephen miller's pushing of white nationalist propaganda as merely 'recommending award-winning books'.
Wait wait, go back. So a person, according to rumor, has read a book. Because they read a book, written by somebody else, like 47 years ago, they're "pushing" ideals?
I mean, I recommend everyone read Mein Kamph, Rules for Radicals, and the Satanic Bible for no other reason that to know what kind of pathetic bullshit is going to be slung at you. The first two both talk about demonizing people based on the books they read, btw.
You a fan of them, I take it? Maybe I'm missing something here.
Personally I haven't read the Camp of the Saints. But just skimming it's wiki page, it probably brings up some good points and some stupid points, like most dystopian garbage. I can say that the mass migration of people does tend to wipe out cultures, to a great extent. Just ask the Incans, Mayans, and various tribes of the US and Canada. Ask the Buntu and the Zulu. Ask the Tibetans. Ask India how Pakistan split.
I mean, there's all kinds of fun talk there. Does it make it racist or xenophobic? No. That you think words describing an imagined possibility make a person a bunch of ists and isms makes you a small minded pussy.
