According to the Times Literary Supplement (Struggles with Mein Kampf) it's also 2,000 pages long, which is considerably longer than Hitler managed.
I would imagine a fair number of those sales have gone to libraries, academics, and students of history and politics. Oh, and of abnormal psychologyComment

It's how it always begins, you've people like Farage stirring up hate and the people lapped it up.
However its unlikely that Farage will be slaughtering anyone by the million. Even Maggie & BLiar would baulk at that.
You know there is a difference between asking "Why do X get a council house before me", "Why do X seem to leave rubbish everywhere when they are moved on from illegally squatting on Land", "Why do the Police believe X nationality are behind 80% of X Crime", "Why does X religion seem to breed Suicide Bombers" and condoning Genocide?Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.Comment

Just saying like...

feel sorry for both sides one lot currently owned the land the other lot were given it when chased out of Europe like they were chased off the land before according to the good book.
Pity they hate each other so completely and all because of religion.Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.Comment

Thatcher's and Blair's autobiographies also do not contain much in the way of racism, unlike Mein Kampf.
Are you now clear on the difference between Hitler's Mein Kampf and Thatcher and Blair's biographies?Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!Comment

Blair and Thatcher's biographies were not self-titled unless they were autobiographies; that would then be another major differenceOriginally posted by MaryPoppinsI'd still not breastfeed a naziOriginally posted by vetranUrine is quite nourishingComment

He was one of the major influences of the last century. Doubt everyone buying MK is a neo-Nazi, most will probably just be interested in history. Programs about Hitler frequently feature on TV.
I've got books about Alistair Crowley, doesn't make me a Satanist.
PS I am a Satanist obviously, but having the books does not make me one.bloggoth
