       @therobburgessshow If only it were just "a book." At today's rate of banning, I lack the resources to buy that many even as an adult with a full time job.They're not banning books but classes of books.We need the "Parental Advisory" label equivalent for books. At least it worked for gen x. We sought out that badge of honor.  I propose using "Woke Advisory" for the chaos that would bring.

       @Try @therobburgessshow Yeah,  we should be able to read waht we want,  and use 'common sense' to work out what the content is likely to be.Reading a book from the 19th or 20th century is likely to have content of old fashioned views,  of the time.   That goes without saying when I was at school we didn't need content warnings.  I think a book seller in the UK selling harry potter books and removed the author from the book.Getting ridiculous most people are perfectly capable of reading a book and seeing that book in the context of the era it was written in.

       @zleap @Try @therobburgessshow At no point are you or anyone else at threat of not being able to read whatever you want whenever you want.Your right to read what you want is equal to the right of any organization to choose to associate themselves with whoever they want. It's really quite simple.

       @laserlotus @zleap @Try @therobburgessshow But a school is not necessarily a private organisation. I most cases it's an arm of the government. People have rights, governments have powers, rights are there to limit government powers.

       @DrewStephenson @zleap @Try @therobburgessshow I agree that public libraries and public schools should carry anything not prohibited by law.

       @laserlotus @zleap @Try @therobburgessshow the book bans aren’t generally about organizations tho, they are about local communities: libraries and schools.
