Banning what they consider sexually explicit books when kids are watching hard porn on their phones id say the focus is on the wrong thing

Weak minds. If you don't like a book, don't read it. But don't tell me what I can and cannot read.

Maybe they could punctuate the point by having some good old fashioned book burning parties. πŸ€”πŸ“šπŸ”₯

Smith is now lashing out at the school board for following the orders from her own Christo-fascist regime. Just as one might expect from the vile far right these days.

The "AB advantage" is apparently becoming fascist like our neighbour to the south. UCP parrots MAGA policies constantly. I am so embarrassed to live here. The UCP does NOT represent me or any of my friends.

Banning books is banning critical thinking. This attack is more than one important type of censorship. It stabs at the very fabric of Canada's multicultural democratic values and how we the people choose to share knowledge.

Parents could stop this, but they are not. This tells you everything you need to know. Oh, they won’t vaccinate their kids, either.
