>“This is a work with controversial content. The content of this work may not be compatible with the principles of a democratic society. This copy is provided on the basis of freedom of censorship, freedom of expression, and freedom of information.”
>The court found this phrasing went far beyond neutrality, essentially discrediting the ideas contained in the books and discouraging potential readers from engaging with them.
>According to the ruling, such a notice “negatively frames the opinions expressed in the book” and violated the principle that opinion formation in a democratic society must be “free of steering”.
>While libraries were entitled to choose what works to stock or exclude, the court emphasised they had no mandate to editorialise on content once a book was in situ.
>The books targeted by the now-discredited warning label included Concealed – Covered Up – Forgotten 2024 by journalist and author Wisnewski, published by Kopp Verlag.
>Also targeted was Putin: Game Master by Swiss security expert Baud, which challenged prevailing Western narratives about the Ukraine war.

Scary, actually terrifying. Allowing fascist creep like this is literally how the third reich started.... Hopefully the adults in your government clamp down on this before it's too late.

Publishers in America circumvent this by finding an academic who seethes with hatred for the book and then they let them write the introduction. You'll open a book and the first thing you get is a screed about how the author is evil and how you're wasting your time even engaging with the content.

This. Imagine funding jewish child rapists. Thats the real warning that should show up, this movie is actually propaganda made by jewish child rapists - take the message with a grain of salt.
