Is this even legal?
>>25285760>banned books>inside: to kill a mockingbird, beloved, the kite runner
>>25285760also who gives a fuck, violating local ordinances is BASED
>>25285765>implying anything in there was ever 'banned'it's probably just a bunch of shit that was pulled from public shelves for being nonce-bait
>>25285773obviously, the people who fetishize "banned books" actually are pro-banning actually subversive texts. fun fact: discussion of the book Camp of the Saints is banned on reddit's bannedbooks board
Depends on the place and the books.>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Castillo_v._Texas
>>25285849>discussion of the book Camp of the Saints is banned on reddit's bannedbooks boardIt's normal for forums to ban off topic bullshit.
>>25285888>The Demon trial ended with a guilty verdict, the prosecution's argument to the jury being based on the claim that "comics are for children" and that the item was therefore designed to appeal to children, fucking kek, /co/ manchildren in shambles
>>25285892kys redditfag, why would a board for championing the reading of “banned books” also deign to ban other books themselves?
>>25285760>Stewards of "Contentious Libraries" and the Little Free Library organization intentionally stock their boxes with titles that have been pulled from school shelves or public library systems. They primarily choose books focusing on LGBTQ+ identities, systemic racism, historical atrocities, and coming-of-age themes.The selections are heavily guided by the American Library Association (ALA) Most Challenged Books list and PEN America data. The core books they choose generally fall into specific categories:LGBTQ+ Memoirs and StoriesGender Queer: A Memoir by Maia Kobabe: A graphic novel detailing the author's journey of gender identity and a frequent target of local bans.All Boys Aren't Blue by George M. Johnson: A young-adult memoir tracking the life of a Black queer youth.This Book Is Gay by Juno Dawson: An informative guide to sexuality, gender, and relationships.And Tango Makes Three by Peter Parnell & Justin Richardson: A children's picture book about two male penguins raising a chick.Race, Identity, and Systemic InequalityThe Hate U Give by Angie Thomas: A novel dealing with police brutality and racial tension through the eyes of a teenage girl.The Bluest Eye by Toni Morrison: A classic literary work addressing racism, beauty standards, and generational trauma.Caste: The Origins of Our Discontents by Isabel Wilkerson: An examination of the hidden hierarchies that shape American society.The 1619 Project led by Nikole Hannah-Jones: A journalistic framework placing the consequences of slavery at the center of the American national narrative.Historic and Literary ClassicsMaus by Art Spiegelman: A Pulitzer Prize-winning graphic novel that depicts the horrors of the Holocaust using anthropomorphic animals.Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury: Ironically targeted for censorship, this dystopian classic details a future where books are outlawed and burned.The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood: Wow so brave.
>>25286021>books focusing on LGBTQ+ identitiesso pedo grooming shit that should be banned
It has always been one of the most repulsive aspects of leftism for me that they simultaneously want to have their cake and eat it too. You don't get to LARP as rebellious and edgy when you are the mainstream that everyone is forced to kowtow to if they don't want to get witch hunted out of academia and mainstream media.
Unironically a good way to get kids and young teens reading.
>>25286012You're also a redditfag, you fucking idiot>Fun fact! On a site known for censoring and defined by updoots, I can't say nigger! Help me I am losing my mind!
>>25286070Barnes and noble did a similar thing during covid where they made like a "banned books" area and it was all normalfag shit. I always wanted to plop mein kampf down on one of those tables and leave just to short circuit NPC "logic".
>>25285760Besides the strawman that rightwingers use to justify banning books (books are turning kids gay!!!1!), I noticed how most of the more recently banned books are about abusive, controlling partners and how to cope with child SA.>Identical (Hopkins)Father rapes her daughter.>Milk and honey (Kaur)Uncle rapes her nephiew.>ACOTARObsessed partner.I saw the article in picrel a couple months ago, and it really clicked: they are trying to isolate troubled youth. They are pedophiles, after all, they'll never fuck socially active youth or kids who understand that what happened to them is bad and are going to report the rapists.>Inb4 it's erotica!! Kids can't read that.>Inb4 it's SA!! Kids can't read that.Both are in the Bible, which isn't banned.
>BANNED BOOKS!>It's a book that was banned in one school somewhere in Jesus country, because there's a blowjob in it
>>25286207Where in school do they invite kids to read the Bible cover to cover? It's a non-issue.They can't even understand the parts that are talking about sex and violence.
>>25286070Nowadays the right is the status quo mainstream.
>>25286070A couple decades ago this used to be the right, now it's the left and the pendulum is swinging right again. When whiny autists started writing emails about people making Charlie Kirk jokes to try and make them lose their jobs I knew it was over. Personally I think making jokes about murdering unarmed people be it Kirk or Floyd or whoever else is in pretty poor taste because I grew up in a very conservative, christian and cushy household but I can still see it as people just wanting to be edgy >>25286213It's such a non issue used only to try and appease a safe edgy crowd into resding already pretty well known books and queerslop. No one is attempting to ban or burn books, they are just attempting to make books irrelevant and to take most people's attention away from even attempting to read them. Huxley gets proven more and more right every day
>>25286331>Huxley gets proven more and more right every dayDon't you mean Bradbury?
unironically, what is the logic that children are supposed to have access to every book?Children, bro. You gonna give them Charles Manson's autobiography too?They can read it when they're grown up. It's just not really for them, is it?You can't find GTAV in a school library either.
>>25285761When people talk about “banned books” in a modern context, they’re usually referring to books that were banned at some point during their history even if they’re not banned now. It’s true by a technicality.
>>25285760I'm glad these pederasts are self marking their locations more accurately than any sex offender list could.
>>25286021
>>25286348Very few books have been "banned" in the US though. They're actually talking about "challenged" books, meaning a mom wants an alternative to Romeo and Juliet for her kid to read in school? "Banned"! Don't want the Kama Sutra in grade school libraries? "Banned"!They're not really banned or censored books though. This stuff is also championed by people who think nothing of trying to get Abigail Shrier or Turner Diaries removed from public libraries or even Amazon.
>>25286207it's an ancient tradition of epsteinian nephilim bloodline el-ites to gaslight their own children into accepting and justifying the satanic ritual abuse they're subjected to. the age of information has only universalized this practice, freud is a prophet of the times
>>25286263Not even close. Name one right wing tv show or movie. You idiot.
>>25285760What are you, Nimoidian? READ 'EM
>>25285849>>25285760Redditors are subhumans.
>>25286763>no /pol/ allowedBased reddit.
>>25286768Okay go there
>>25286331>When whiny autists started writing emails about people making Charlie Kirk jokes to try and make them lose their jobsI guess you saw an article where this happened once and probably wasn‘t successful but it‘s flagrantly disingenuous to compare that to the monopoly leftoids have on permissible discourse. Unless you want to seriously claim that a Kirk joke and a Floyd joke will get you remotely similar treatment anywhere.
>>25285760>not even available on Amazon and tranny brigades got it removed from other sellersThese faggot book drops deserve a copy of this in each and everyone one of them.
>>25286263Ha. Ha ha ha ha. Ha ha ha ha.
>>25286839print your own, and put them in.
