Bit of a leap there, but hey, if you’ve got kids and you want them to read those books then I don’t think anyone should be able to stop you. Your kid, your choice.
My only point is that I’d want to make sure my kid, if I had one, was able to understand the themes in the book before reading.
I was also making a point about other books with more violent or pornographic content not being on this reactionary banned book list, but everyone seems to have overlooked that. Oh well.
My children are grown, graduated and productive members of society. Still doesn’t stop me for advocating for literacy and access for the next generations. If you want to live in a dystopian hellhole, only care about you and yours and see how far it gets you.
I’m glad you’d care about your kid, you should care about society’s kids, because it’s society that will keep the hospitals open etc.

see this is the part that falls flat for me. You’ve been to a library before right?
maybe?
See, they have these things, called LIBRARIANS. And Librarians know what’s in their collections.
Do you really think the librarians are pushing printed smut on the kiddos?
Or could it just, maybe just possibly, be yet another culture war canard of BULLSHIT the right is pushing because they don’t LIKE FREEDOM OF SPEECH AND EXPRESSION, LGBTQ folk etc - and are trying to suppress anything not chirstofascist?
USE YOUR FUCKING MELON.
“oh well”
yeah fuck that, it’s easy to moan and go “what about the children” - WHAT ABOUT THE CHILDREN GETTING A FUCKING EDUCATION AND PEOPLE STOP FUCKING WITH LIBRARIANS?

The latest instructions given to librarians from George Soros are to focus on turning kids trans by applying a special powder to the pages. Smut-pushing was voted down at the conference, but just barely, so it might come back next year. Stay tuned!
