We aren’t.
That’s some bullshit that bigoted little pieces of shit like Ron DeSantis feed you. It’s kind of clever in a sinister way: they seek to silence, oppress, and marginalize minorities, and claim it’s “for the children’s protection.” If you speak out against it, they smear you as a groomer, child molester, pedo, or some other disgusting awful shit.
You want to know what books I’m referring to?
According to PEN America which monitors these bans, 874 specific titles are affected.
You don’t really think those are all books about anal sex, do you?? Are books with sex, or sexual encounters between characters the most banned? Nope, far from it—books that have characters of color, characters which are LGBTQ, or discuss race, or discuss health and well-being for students all have more banned titles than books with sex in them.
These book bans, the bullshit HB1557 Don’t Say Gay bill, the bullshit exclusion of AP African American history, their bullshit laws that have teachers afraid to teach a century of American history, are all part of a large-scale effort to silence minority groups.
Maybe your side should stop defending the gross lgbtq sex books then. Until then none of your arguments matter.
