Such An Ugly Word

Discrimination.

I’m sure by now most people have heard about Amazon stripping GLBT books of their sales ranking because they are ‘adult content’. Given the bizarre inconsistencies for what Amazon considers adult content, this move by Amazon is clearly discrimination.

If you haven’t heard about any of this, Dear Author explains in detail what’s happened, and what you can do about it.

I generally don’t get all political on my blog, but this kind of censorship feels small-minded and wrong to me.

Mood: Saddened
