I said that Milo's book is in high demand based on preorders. The cancelling of the book is a disruption of the free market as there is now a disruption in the supply that has nothing to do with organic supply and demand.
No, this is the free market at work. Simon and schuster didn't want to be associated with an author that appears to advocate for pedophilia ( or if you want to mince terms hebephilia). They did this as consumers might elect to not buy their books if they kept this association. This is a rational decision on their part, and consumers do yield power to force their hands. If you don't like their decision, don't buy their books, maybe they will change their mind.
Conservatives love the concept of boycotts until they result in something they don't like.

Did Simon and Schuster have any real data to prove that people would not want his book anymore? Or did they bow before outrage from people who would've never bought the book ?
