Guess we can't ban Mein Kampf from school curricula or libraries. That would be limiting young people's understanding of racism!
The problem these people have isn't that students' understanding is being limited. They have been making such choices about what is and isn't allowed for years. The problem is that it's being done by the wrong people and we can't have that.
Bull fucking shit. It isn't exactly difficult to get a hold of a copy of any of these books. It isn't about controlling access, it's about not teaching and endorsing these materials.
Mein Kamph ACTUALLY gets banned, by countries.
What they are calling "banned books" is simply not letting teachers force shit on to the students.
That should be obvious but apparently not. For instance why would a Christian/Muslim/Jewish/etc parent want their kids to be taught lgbt lessons? This goes for anything. If I were white I’d get pretty sick of hearing about how I’m responsible for things that happened long before I was born with no larger perspective about the history of the world in general.
Why should an atheist want their kids to be taught lgbt lessons? Outside of progressive religious prescripts, it is self-evident that child grooming and promotion of hedonistic sexual impulses are detrimental to any society.
An atheist?
Probably to help destabilize social order. His own child being offered up at the sacrificial altar is of no consequence.
