Special interest groups (read: religious groups) abusing book ban laws? You don’t say! I would have never expected that! We all know that religious groups follow their own religious laws to the letthehehehehahahahahahahaaha
Can’t even say that with a straight face
RELIGIOUS groups, specifically
They can’t keep their noses and superstition out of the lives of others
Your freedom of religion does not give you the freedom to make me listen to you, religious twat.
They forget that their freedom to worship also means that we’re free not to
Of course, they justify it by claiming that they’re “saving” us
I don’t want saving. I want to be left alone
This is as stupid as saying “People don’t attempt to negotiate higher wages, it’s always unions that do it!”
It’s still wrong, but - sometimes these headlines are wild.
Disagree.
72% of demands to censor books were initiated by pressure groups, government entities and elected officials, board members and administrators, reported the American Library Association (ALA).
These are all roles frequently populated by control freaks. That makes them different from typical parents. I think it’s an important distinction.
