Unfortunately, jackass conservatives don’t believe in such a thing. If they did, there wouldn’t even be a need to “meet in the middle” over actually banning literature.
Meeting people in the middle works for things like “what should we spend tax money on”, because those are things that are not zero-sum - you can actually divide the pie up and make everyone reasonably happy. Conservatives are not happy until they have it 100% their way, as you’ve seen time and time again. You give them an inch, they take the whole damn yardstick.
First it was “you can’t say gay”, then it was “you can’t ask what people want to be called”, and now it’s escalated again to “if you ask, you’re a literal sex offender”.
You’ve also just described the extreme left. The extremes of the political spectrum get a lot of the news and they’re both wrong and need to be put in check.
Bro most people aren’t the extreme left and leftist politicians aren’t enacting book bannings and banning people from talking about the fact that they exist in school.

That’s redundant.
