Amazon says it won’t list books it claims classify transgenderism as a mental illness

Amazon this week finally clarified why last month it removed a transgender-critical book written by a moral philosopher, claiming that it will no longer list books it says treat transgenderism as a “mental illness.”

The company last month pulled author Ryan Anderson’s three-year-old book “When Harry Became Sally: Responding to the Transgender Movement,” a decision it appeared to justify on the grounds of a newly implemented “hate speech” policy.

This week, however, Amazon revealed in a letter to Republican senators obtained by the Wall Street Journal that it removed Anderson’s book due to what it said was the book’s classification of transgender people as mentally ill.

“We have chosen not to sell books that frame LGBTQ+ identity as a mental illness,” the company said in the letter.

  1. Well, just like Target back a few years ago – fine.

    Consumers will adjust and unlike Target where it hurt their bottom line – Amazon won’t blink and just laugh cuz they are the current monopoly and holder of all cards.

    Sad but true.

  2. If Drapetomania is considered a mental illness back from the 1800’s; and when you claim a kid who is being a kid and running around has some ADHD mental illness; So the hell is thinking you are a women when you are a man, and vise versa! No one says you can’t identify as you wish, but to try an suggest we are wrong when we say you either are or are not a man or woman, does not change! That is factual, and nothing you do or say will ever change that! But who f’ing cares right? With people losing jobs, and soon to be taxed while still out of your jobs, while there is rampart homelessness, while there is drug problems and while there are massive murders daily; people rioting and looting and burning down buildings and every thing else, you clowns are worried about a word you are called? Who gives a shit, I will call you what I want, and I give two shits if you get “OFFENDED” or not!

  3. Typical democrat let’s hide the truth
    All democrats are mentally ill
    It is a prerequisite to being a democrat
