    “Work as a community” as long as it’s MY way. To hell with community members who don’t t bow to our religious bs.

    Bad move IMHO. This is a fight that has to have lines drawn in the sand. Close the library rather than make it a place where only these horrible people can get what THEY want.

    I wish that there was a separation in state and church, but in places as religious heavy as this, it may be too much to ask. Still, such a shame. As the top comment says, all you have to do is monitor your child’s reading (which you should be doing anyway). Manage your responsibilities, but don’t expect others to share in your moral outlook. Don’t make a you issue an everybody issue.

    This is a public library pulling kids books that involve LBGTQ subject matter. Not pornography. Not graphic violence. This is wrong and must be challenged.

    These assholes are moralists of the worst sort, trying to force their beliefs and prejudices onto everyone. No. Parent your children. Know what they are reading and watching. Talk to your kids.

    Banning books and the ideas and realities they contain (because LBGTQ+ is a significant part of reality… 7% of the US are LBGTQ) is the purest form of arrogance, hubris and stupidity that I know about.

    So let me get this straight, you want underage gay porn to be available to children because “they do it anyway”.

    Interesting. If you can’t see the problem with that then I won’t waste my breath trying to explain.

      Which of those books were pornography? If you can’t tell the difference between literature with LGBTQ themes or representation and pornography, your breath isn’t worth the air it’s wasting.

    My gay agenda, nooooo! We were this close to making every kid trans, gosh darn it.

    So hilariously ironic to me that these same people don’t see the parallel with their own indoctrination of their kids with religious shit. Like those books written by that jackass dude who wants to teach kids “real American values” by not so subtly explaining how capitalism is king and so is god lmfao. But sure, burn the rainbow fish book bc he’s a gay socialist 😂

    “The LGBTQS are indoctrinating kids into the woke cult!!! Anyway I forbid them from reading anything outside of the Bible and they aren’t allowed to question the teachings of our doomsday cult”

    Book banning is just another sign that this nation is fuckng dead.

    Right-wingers are such vile, pathetic, worthless, frightened, little pieces of shit.
