A local leftists moms group pulled a total own goal by donating A Clockwork Orange to local schools presumably because it was "banned" (which here is a word meaning removed from school libraries because of the multiple explicit rape scenes) in Alabama schools at some point. Clearly none of them had ever read it because besides the rape scenes it's very right-wing, and had just assumed if red state has banned it must be good. And that same mom's group keeps making speeches at school board meetings implying that those who want to "ban" books don't even read. The most viscerally annoying aspect of liberals is their unearned smugness; this mom's group is a bunch of fucking AWFLs who have managed to marry high earning professional husbands giving them time for their "activism" and grooming of their own children; if I hear the phrase "as the mother of a trans-child" one more time...
