Toward Anarchy
#2533 Alan Katz
It's that time of the year, time to check out the Banned Books List, and ask the question, Ban Books? We should ban Public
Libraries and Public Schools and other socialist welfare schemes. Then in the second hour Alan Katz Co-Creator of The Crypt Keeper from the cult classic HBO television series Tales from the Crypt, talks about the series, his experience in Hollywood making Television shows and Movies and drops some great advice for Broadcasters and Podcasters.

Anarchist Reacts:
It's always a lot of fun when we look at something together for the first time... This time I may regret it as we Test My Dungeons and Dragons Knowledge with this Literally Impossible tabletop quiz.
Anarchist Audit:
Once again I make no friends standing on logic, reason, and morality as my defense of banning books. What? That's right, it's perfectly acceptable to ban books in public spaces. The real problem, the things that should be banned, if anything should be, are public spaces like Public Schools and Public Libraries. The facts are simple. Public Spaces are subject to public opinion. If you don't like it, stop practicing socialism.
There is a documentary about George Orwell and what promoted him to write 1984 and Animal Farm, it's called Orwell Two Plus Two Equals Five and you can find it on Films For Action. I have not watched it, I'm just sharing it for your consideration.
The latest political climate change shell-game? Carbon Swaps for Airline Passengers. Feeling guilty about all the
pollution output by your constant jet setting? Like any good problem, you can throw money at it. Just don't consider that doing so doesn't reduce the amount of
pollution.
At first glance it may seem like a good idea to protect your property from being copied, but there is no proof that doing so increases the income of the property holder, even when it is clear that someone is making money off 'your property' Disney and Others Are Telling AI Image and Video creators to Cease and Desist. But, is there any value in doing so?
Hasbro talking heads claim less than 10 Percent of players 'strongly' dislike Magic the Gathering Universes Beyond sets. I think the claim is moot. Just because they don't hate the sets, even if the buy the sets, it's not the same as playing the cards in the sets, and that's what we're really talking about when we're talking about 'Players'. Aren't we?
Not that I care about such things, but concealed carry is legal EVERYWHERE if you're not a pussy or a boot licker, but They Are Working On National
Concealed Carry Reciprocity. It shouldn't be illegal to carry at all period, let alone on one side of an arbitrary government defined line like a city limit and perfectly legal on the other, particularly when concealed.

"The Anarchists never have claimed that liberty will bring perfection; they simply say that it's results are vastly preferable to those that follow authority." -
