New Jersey becomes latest state to prohibit bans on books
A ban ban. How novel.
Book ban ban lol nice (seriously though this is good with all the red scare 3.0 shit getting pushed right now).
Well fuck they left open an exception for transphobia motivated bans
The bill permits restriction in the case of “developmentally inappropriate material” for certain age groups. The measure also requires local school boards and the governing bodies of public libraries to set up policies for book curation and the removal of library materials, including a way to address concerns over certain items.
Fuck this country
America is one of those countries that just cannot ever get anything 100% right.
Too many people have competing interests
The US is bifurcating. Has it ever been this divided since the Civil War? Maybe during the Jim Crow Era and the Civil Rights movement?
The technical term is a book ban ban.
It's crazy that such measures are necessary at all. Why are today's fascists still such fans of book bans? Because Hitler thought it was great?
Yes. That's probably one of the reasons.
Book bans are about control.
That's why it appeals to fascists.
