Amazon sells Hitler’s Mein Kampf , but blocked an advertisement for an investigative book on Black Lives Matter leaders, citing “controversial” content. The platform later claimed to have made an “error” and is now allowing the book to be advertised.
The book in question, BLM: The Making of a New Marxist Revolution , was written by Mike Gonzalez , senior fellow at The Heritage Foundation. Heritage tried to purchase an ad for Gonzalez’s book, but reported that “Amazon, the nation’s largest retailer, blocked it from its website,” according to Heritage’s The Daily Signal . The Daily Signal said Amazon notified Heritage Tuesday that the advertisement for Gonzalez’s book “no longer complies with our current Creative Acceptance Policies.” Amazon continued, “Specifically for the following reasons: Your ad contains book/s or content that is not allowed. Content that revolves around controversial or highly debated social topics is not permitted.” Amazon also told Heritage, “Please remove this content from your ad.” The book was still being sold on Amazon as a category best-seller.
Amazon told MRC Free Speech America, “Our policies were not enforced correctly in this case. We fixed the error, communicated with the advertiser, and the book is now being advertised. We will be providing additional training to ensure our teams are clear on our policies and how to enforce them in the future.”
Mike Gonzalez said in a statement he wrote the book because the “press refused to cover the important questions” about Black Lives Matter. He suggested Amazon was “trying to limit how many Americans read this book.” The Daily Signal quoted Gonzalez:
“The American people deserve answers to those questions, especially after the 630 or more riots that left our cities burning, businesses destroyed and billions in damage, and Americans dead.”
Earlier in 2021, Amazon ceased selling the book When Harry Became Sally: Responding to the Transgender Moment by former Heritage Foundation senior research fellow and current Ethics and Public Policy Center President Ryan T. Anderson . Meanwhile, books by terrorist Osama Bin Laden and convicted murderer Charles Manson were sold on Amazon when Anderson’s book was removed. Amazon Prime Video also […]

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
