Read the article lol. No book was banned by the left.

Oh, so they didn't try banning it? I must've not understood the point of trying to get the publisher to not publish it, then

Literary figures and employees of penguin signed a petition arguing the book went against the values of the publishing house. Upon reflection penguin decided not to publish to book. There are lots of different publishers. One publishing company deciding not to print a book does not a book ban make. The article explicitly states there are publishing houses who would be happy to publish the book. You don't have the right to have your book published by whoever you want to.

Kinda like how that bakery tried to ban gay wedding cakes, right?
