I'm definitely not for banning books, but couldn't you say the same thing about news media? Or Facebook memes? Those "get you to think".
We should only be banning things that promote intolerance because there will never be an end to the bannings, there will always be some witch to hunt somewhere.
To answer your question, yes it is the saying the same thing, that is why banning books is so stupid. A book, movie, TV show, meme, or news report isn't necessarily going to change my mind but it might make me think about something from a perspective I didn't consider before.
I don't support banning memes or the news either, but they aren't under attack currently.
