Wasn't the book also insanely controversial when it was first produced, thus people started to (ironically) burn it?

That atually captures the mentality of today: Be "tolerant" of all viewpoints that you personally like or at least don't dislike, but if you might be in danger of hearing a point or position you don't like, define it as "Nazi" and you suddenly become justified in blocking anyone else from possibly hearing it aand using violence to prevent anyone from trying to explain the position you don't want to hear.
