And it was Holocaust Remembrance Day. |
As is usually the case in book bannings that make the news, sales of Maus are now going UP. Good move dumbass fascist book-banning parents!

It’s a fantastic book that everyone should read. |
I will now that it has been helpfully brought to my attention by the book banning zealots! |
“Copies of at least nine book titles have been removed from libraries at four high schools in the Canyons School District — all in response to an email from a parent who expressed concerns about the titles she said she learned about through social media videos.
The removal appears to violate the district's own policies for what happens when someone has concerns about books owned by a school library.” https://www.deseret.com/utah/2021/11/17/22787692/book-banning-utah-district-pulled-these-titles-from-4-high-school-libraries-education-libraries |
All I can think about is how dumb these kids will be. |
That’s the point. There won’t be more Republican voters if kids are taught to empathize with other people, to understand their stories and to think critically. |
Eh, I think it shows how dumb the parents are. Let's ban books in school libraries but give our kids 24/7 access to the interwebs where they can search for any type of porn they want to see! /s |
What is cis-gender? Book banning is so stupid. Why would anybody want to line up with the first of emperor in China. |
I can tell everyone gets their news from twitter rather than actual facts on the ground. People should read up on the Maus in McMinn County "banning." It's much more different than you might expect. I don't agree with the board as I read Maus when I was in middle school but at the same time the board is not what people are accusing them of. |
That is what the white parents wants

https://www.nytimes.com/2022/01/27/us/maus-banned-holocaust-tennessee.amp.html They removed it from the 8th grade curriculum. Are you making the semantic argument that preventing it from being taught in classroom is not the same as banning? |
