'Burning books in a digital era? There's kindle, fam': Reactions pour in to Gangster State burning

@ANCYLhq so toxic! Calling for book burning! Where are we? Nazi Germany?

No one is forced to buy the book.

We can write whatever we want. Write your own book!

The ANC has been divided, don't blame it on a book! #Gangsterstate #ANC

ANC supporters are so retrogressive. They are no different from their leaders. #GangsterState

Book burning in the digital age... is that what a Kindle Fire is for? 😁#GangsterState #bookburning #AceMagashule

Is book burning part of the process of self correction, @MYANC ?#GangsterState @Magashule_Ace

The great irony about ANC supporters trashing copies of @PLMyburgh's #GangsterState is that this is the same ANC that fought Apartheid's censorship laws which banned supposedly controversial books.

The fact is, the Glorious Movement that fought Apartheid is not the ANC of 2019.

Well done @MYANC . I actually had no intentions of reading this book. I mean, what new can it tell me that I didn't already know. But after this book burning BS, I'm definitely gonna get a copy. What are you trying to hide? #freemarketing #GangsterState

The ANCYL is going to be burning copies of #GangsterState

When you're hosting a book burning, it's time to ask yourself: pic.twitter.com/Qgl45Q1vR9
