Here's a sampling of information on the topic. Frankly, John Green's "Looking For Alaska" doesn't deserve being banned. In fact it should be required reading for young adults.

Anything that conflates LGB with the TQ+ is just homophobic dribble...

Oh so now you wanna divide and conquer LGBTQ+? You don't feel THOSE people should work alongside THESE people? If gays, bis, trans, etc don't band together? They will be eaten by the opposition. TOGETHER FOREVER! I'm a straight white guy and even I want them to work together. GROW UP!

Just because books aren't available in certain settings doesn't mean they are banned. The massive onslaught of bullshit hyperbole like that just helped to divide the left and allow Trump to walk in and easily fill the void. If you want him gone,we need to do better.

That’s exactly what book ban means. It’s embarrassing how wrong you are but still replying over and over and over again. Maybe know what the fuck you’re talking about before trying to pop off.

No it's not. Book ban means it's banned entirely, no longer accessible and illegal to possess. Like how Mein Kamf was banned in Germany after WW2. By your logic because I can't find a hentai section at my local elementary school library it means Manga is banned...

It's physically impossible to do "entirely" what you suggest. Governments and other Powers can demand this, but WE will circumvent these limitations. Eternal vigilance against willful ignorance. youtu.be/-_lUswcHCnI?...

Honestly just ignore them. They don’t even know what a book ban is and they are a terf not worth anyone’s time or effort.

Science denying dribble like "Gender Queer" would have only made it worse.

You're a straight bitch telling a gay man how to feel about gay issues. Just stop and think about that for a second. Would you tell a black man how to feel about black issues?

You're a fellow human believing you & only you are right about everything and refuse to accept when you already lost this argument about twenty tweets ago! I can't speak for others but I have talked to a black guy about where I stand on black issues and he didn't punch me in the face. Progress!

So because my English teacher told me to not bring Silence of the Lambs to class for reading time when I was in 8th grade (movie had just come out) I guess he was "banning" eh? They s entire time you've just made yourself look like a history denying uneducated dolt.

The, classic "I have a gay/black/whatever friend"... Are we really dropping that low in the intellect meter? Tell me how I've lost anything when all I've done is state facts while your only argument is personal attacks...

Hey! You asked! Also I didn't say he & I were "friends." Mutual acquaintances I guess you could say? It was a pleasant debate. You weren't there. Your presumptions are not valid. In fact this entire thread is a waste of time. "Fun" while it lasted, but I'm moving on. Consider yourself muted.

People like you are one of the worst things to ever happen to the LGB community.

People like you insult other people when your argument already flew out the window with that dove of yours several tweets ago and yes I still call them tweets you wanna ban that too?

She's just another straight Karen whose probably only experience around LGBs is when she went to a gay bar for her bachelorette party...

The only argument she could give was the pathetic "you're a TERF". For starters when you have to jump to personal attacks that quickly it shows just how little knowledge you actually possess on the subject, not to mention TERF just means "someone who understands biology".

Back to "banned books" as a definition. There's lists of books that anything from a single library to national governments opt to say "no" those lists are honored by those who respect the source, but most of us know it's just a stupid list and go to another library or another country to get a book!

If your only argument is to accuse me of understanding biology your pathetically clueless and not a good LGB ally. Oh and pronouns in bio are just a sign of low intelligence.

FFS, stop it with the blatant dishonest hyperbole. All it's done is help alienate people, voters, from the democratic party. I bet you can't even define gender...

You're the one that doesn't know what it is. By your logic, just because a book isn't available EVERYWHERE it's banned. I can't find Silence of the Lambs or the Shining at my nephews school library, must mean they're banned.

When I was in middle school, I was extremely interested in reading everything I could about the evolution of man. Just because I had to walk to the public library 3 blocks from my school to check out books by Darwin and Leakey, doesn't mean they were "banned".

It is in the modern age, but that doesn't change what a book ban actually is.

Loud and ignorant. That would be banned at the federal level and there is no librarian that would ever put a hentai section in a school library to begin with. It’s a non issue unlike kids dying in schools which is the part of the conversation you clearly don’t care about.

Believing in the concept of gender, a concept based solely on outdated, harmful, stereotypes. A concept created by a pedophile doctor in the 50s to cover up his own malpractice, is a sign of low intelligence and a brain that's easily susceptible to bullshit. You must have been raised religiously...

Yet they'll include Gender Queer which is just if, not more so potentially harmful if discovered by a child in elementary school. Saying this as a GAY MAN.
aug 31, 2025, 2:09 pm • 0 0 • view
Oh and as a gay man, one that doesn't believe in the regressive, misogynistic, homophobic concept of gender. Absolute science denying garbage like Gender Queer shouldn't be recognized for anything more than the book you grab when the library is out of TP.

Yes, I get that's the point, but it was written so badly that she doesn't have a single redeemable trait. She's just a shit human all around. I like Hank Green's videos, but the man can't write.

Oh and looking for Alaska is one of the last things I'd want my child to read. I read it out of boredom on a train ride across the country on a friend's suggestion. Should have titled Alaska: The gill farm far colder than the state. Gree really knows how to make you despise a character.

I can easily purchase all of those or find them at my local library, thus they aren't banned.

Maybe learn what exactly a book ban is before replying. And why choose to fight over the semantics of what it means for a book to be banned when clearly the point is kids are dying in schools and our government has done absolutely nothing to prevent it from happening again and again.

This isn't a book ban though. Also books like "Gender Queer" are homophobic science denying rhetoric that would only confuse a child. Especially one like the weird autistic one I was who later turned out to just be a basic homosexual.
