I love the smell of discrimination in the morning

This was my letter to Amazon:

Like many other of your customers, I am disgusted with your new policy regarding LGBT literature. Your process of stripping rankings from "adult material" is discriminatory as it treats books with LGBT relationships differently from books with heterosexual relationships which have the same level of sexual activity. I cannot condone such practices. Consider whatever business you might have had from me in the future as lost until you reverse this decision, or until the eventual anti-discrimination lawsuit reverses it for you.

I don't buy things from Amazon every day, but I certainly shop there and have ordered items not infrequently. It will be an inconvenience not to order from them, but what they are doing is wrong.

EDIT: Amazon Rank! Thanks rashaka!
