[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Okay, but this is 100 pages showing this is way beyond those two books, so why don't you address the other ones instead of bringing up the same thing over and over and over again as if they are the only two books being banned?[/quote]Because I don't know what other books people are trying to ban.  If you tell me, I'll give my opinion if you'd like it.[/quote]

I’m a DP from a few pages back who suggested you look into what is being banned in TX, FL, and even here in some local districts in VA.  You’re hung up on 2 books.  Go look at what some of your other book-banning buddies are trying to remove. 
Can you not “do your own research”?[/quote]Typical progressive.  You have an us vs them mentality.  I have no "buddies" on this issue.  But to my knowledge, no one is trying to ban books...meaning you can still order all the gay porn you want from Amazon or at your local bookstore.[/quote]

Not a progressive. Again, please use your preferred search engine to search for lists of books being pulled off of shelves in various school districts throughout the country, but noteably Texas and Florida.  You'll find LOTS of titles beyond Lawn Boy and Genderqueer, and most of them aren't being pulled due to "gay porn".
Unless you think biographies of Malala Yousafzai,  Harriett Tubman, Rosa Parks, etc constitute "gay porn"?  Or, perhaps 1984?  The Color Purple?  A Separate Peace?  How about "Forever" by Judy Blume?[/quote]

Dp- it’s seems many of the these titles are about empowered women. The previous poster seem to want to vilify librarians ( a traditionally female profession) and want to ban books focused on women’s rights, stories, and struggles. This is all rooted in misogyny. [/quote]
Of course it is! One of the tenets of fascism is traditional roles only. They don’t want women voting, they don’t want White women working, they don’t want women getting educated. They want rape to what it once was - far more common, with younger victims not understanding what is happening to them and with women keeping their rapes secret for fear of shame. They certainly don’t want women having sex with other women or choosing to abstain from sex at all. And we know for damn sure they want women to have no say in what happens to their bodies - the GOP merrily overturning fifty years of settled law because they hate us as humans and only see a uterus and a vagina.

So yeah. The fascists posting on here have to keep obsessing over not pornography like it’s pornography and making sure that no one goes and talks about why they ban books women and critical thinking and gay families. [/quote]
