       Conservative state libraries are leaving American Library Association because ALA is against book banningsfrom AP:"This summer, the state libraries in Montana, Missouri and Texas and the local library in Midland, Texas, announced they’re leaving the ALA, with possibly more to come. Right-wing lawmakers in at least nine other states — Arizona, Georgia, Illinois, Louisiana, Mississippi, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, South Dakota and Wyoming — demand similar action."https://apnews.com/article/library-book-ban-association-withdraw-7f5743a9e464433a745697f9111d7f6b

       @brewsterkahle This looks like the work of Moms for [an Orwellian definition of] Liberty. And the worst part? They're winning. 😢

       @brewsterkahle What does this mean? What does the ALA do?

       @brewsterkahle The assertion that the ALA has "changed" by the right-wingers quoted in this article is hilarious and laughable.Watch it become right-wing dogma in the same way that "the ACLU has lost its way" is Hacker News dogma.

       @brewsterkahle The complete rejection of freedom of information by these people is really getting disturbing at this point. This is the type of shit that leads to dystopias.

       @brewsterkahle Well, the right-wingnuts created "Conservapedia" when Wikipedia got "too liberal" for them, so this isn't really a surprise. They want their own little titanium-shielded bubble where reality and facts can't penetrate, is what it boils down to.

       @brewsterkahle it's easier to control the masses when they are uneducated and scared.
