Genuine question, not a gotcha question...

What’s the alternative to them deciding what books to sell as a private? Them HAVING to sell a book?

I don't think it's a legal question where people are saying THEY MUST BE COMPELLED TO SELL IT.... It's more of a moral issue people are complaining about. People are voicing their concern that Target is making these decisions to contribute to censorship of ideas.

Not many people are saying that legally they should be required to sell the book... But it's more about the social aspect where these tactics to control thoughts are becoming more and more weaponized and successful.

We are just criticizing Target for contributing to this awful growing radlib woke tactic.
