Is it?

Sounds like teachers don’t think that book is a useful resource in the classroom anymore. That’s not banning.

The struggle for fascists to feel like not fascists is real, I’m sure, but I also think you guys are currently beyond redemption. [/quote]

OMG.  I can't even with your moving the goalposts every time Democrats are caught being hypocrites - which is every single day.  You people are such a joke.

Okay?

“Banning” is a real word with a specific meaning. What these teachers did isn’t “banning.” What the Orwellian named “Moms for Liberty” is doing is banning. Several elected Republicans have been giddy about banning and burning books.

Your party is fascist. [/quote]

So - just to be clear - you consider keeping school libraries full of AGE-APPROPRIATE books to be "banning," even though the books in question are widely available at any bookstore, public library, Amazon, etc.  But somehow, teachers saying "To Kill a Mockingbird" is inappropriate and will not be part of the required curriculum, is NOT banning.

Also, exactly which elected Republican is "giddy about banning and [b]burning[/b] books"?  We'll wait while you dredge up some BS from a LWNJ propaganda site.[/quote]
There’s too much stupid here.

[b]Republicans have stripped the age appropriate books out of schools altogether, including school libraries. [/b]Republicans are trying to strip public libraries of funding, another way to de facto ban books.

Specific teachers in specific classes in one school listened to their students’ reservations about one book. No, that’s not banning. That’s removing that book from the curriculum. 
 
Maybe if your parents had instilled a sense of courage and a love of reading you’d understand what you are. [/quote]

Speaking of stupid ^^.  I was pretty much raised at the library - and before a library was built in our area, I was a bookmobile fanatic.  I grew up on books.  [b]But I can assure you, if a book like "Gender Queer" had found its way into my hands, my parents would absolutely have removed it and told me it would have to wait until I was an adult.  [/b]

But I do love the absolute hysteria and hyperbole in your post.  The bolded, especially, made me laugh out loud.  So you're saying that school libraries are empty?  No books?  Interesting!  [/quote]

Which is fine. Why would you deny other parents the right to make the same choice (or a different one)?[/quote]

EXACTLY THIS. This is entirely the point and how it should be. Not you deciding for me, and vice versa.[/quote]
