You didn't address the actual issue. Looking at your claim:
"I was a voracious reader, but I had a collegiate reading level since i was 6 or 7 and the books available to us in our school library just weren't cutting it. I also pined for more adult-oriented themes and plots."
and your claim:
"I had access to Mein Kampf in my elementary school."
Even if we put aside the question about the veracity of your claims, we're still left with no clue about what was actually available at your elementary school. Apparently your school didn't have enough adult-oriented books...yet it also gave the kids access to Mein Kampf.
You're completely confusing reading level, historical significance with thematic content. "Mein Kampf" is not what I was looking for in reading material.

I don't care if you spend the rest of your life questioning my own experience; I don't question it, because I lived it, and after this conversation we'll never speak to each other again and I will continue to live my life.
> Apparently your school didn't have enough adult-oriented books...yet it also gave the kids access to Mein Kampf.
Can you understand the difference between Mein Kampf and other books and why Mein Kampf might not scratch that itch? After I read it, what, do I just read it again and again? No, I want more books. I read 2-4 books a week. I suffered extreme childhood abuse and reading was my escape.
You're not making any real points, just looking for a little gotcha moment so you can pat yourself on the back, looking for inconsistencies so desperately that you're willing to intentionally ignore the obvious in search of something else.
This isn't how you have a conversation with others.
