If you’re wondering “how Florida is Florida?”, our school board just voted to ban a book (over the recommendation of their hand-picked review committee) in part because it’s a manga, and therefore read back-to-front. #supportpubliceducation #florida #StopMomsForLiberty #stopbookbanning https://www.threads.net/@paulroub/post/C_MSYW4JQuq

To find someone local who thinks there should be *more* unfounded book challenges, they had to resort to our county’s #1 book banner (she challenged “The Nowhere Girls”, which I’m flipping through, unaware who was on deck). So she still agrees with herself, I guess.

Earlier tonight I posted a video to TikTok, lamenting the insanity that is Moms For Liberty and in particular their book ban crusade, not least the forced coverup of cartoons in children’s books. TikTok pulled the video for, I swear, 'Sexually Suggesive Content'

Ugh. Conroe.

The twisted, stunted attitudes about "protecting children" make them prey to people pushing these agendas.

Mysterious woman tells school board that Scholastic book sparked porn addiction

On November 14, a 20-year-old woman named Lanah Burkhardt appeared before the school board of the Conroe Independent School District in Texas. Burkhardt told the board that, when she was 11, she read a Scholastic book that introduced her to "a single kiss." According to Burkhardt, her exposure to this Scholastic book was directly responsible for her developing a debilitating addiction to pornography.

Wow! I never thought that I’d see one of my roots on the trending page! I’m honored. Now that so many of you have seen that the state of Illinois has outlawed book banning it’s now time to send this same message to your local representatives for them to do the same #stopbookbanning #writingcommunity #democracy
