Remember that books are going to be harder to find. Public libraries might be something that they go after. I know that food is #1 priority, but knowledge should be in your top 5.
Please stay safe and please educate yourself.

It does amaze me they're so afraid and ban books in a society seemingly ruled by tech. It's almost like the money people are afraid of grassroots creative people, or abstract thought, or something 🤔 ?
Because there was no reason to put it out there
Nonetheless, sounds weird that America blows it's trumpet on free speech but then flakes out on some negative light.
But also which book will you be when we live out this story
Are the titles in the picture actually banned, or are they just some random books?
I'm in Spain, so I don't know how that works there.
And just the threat of bans is enough for teachers to start self-censoring the content they teach because they don’t want to be thrown into the fire with the books. 📚 🔥
My Grandmother to her children in the early 1940's
She reared 4 children on her own as a young widow, and put 3 of them through college (my uncle joined the Navy in 1942 and suffered from shell shock)
luxury housing will almost certainly
necessitate the closure of some of
our libraries that are in large, handsome buildings, most especially for purposes
of meeting the housing needs of
wealthy foreigners who need
a pied a terre here in the States.

But the fact it's banned wen it was a good book, man 😔.

They can ban what they want, but the words and ideas will always be available, that genie is out to the bottle.
I do trust that, there either already is or the programmers will create a ebook reader.
And if you can side load your books, and it’s an offline reader nothing they can do
I think all creators, should have a way to accept payment from random people, just for such reasons.
No human can hope to reach adulthood without turning these timeless pages over one by one. I'm surprised Animal Farm has escaped the censor.

Hang on, isn't that eerily like the fall of the Western Roman Empire until the Renaissance? That's a heck of a long time before someone writes a Chorale again, and whole load of plague.
The themes are empathy & protecting the vulnerable.. I see a pattern developing here
And through is stories gave political statement, telling the world that it ain't all sunshine and roses.
That's probably the reason his books are banned
Hold strong, read to your kids I suppose.
History keeps repeating itself about those taking or allowing such maltreatment, then one day, oops; the masses rise to snuff shit to a peace-of-mind level for the next 80yrs or so...
They march ahead using deceit, fallacy, and conspiracy theory.
Why analyze, use empirical evidence, and facts to make decisions when lieing and and deceiving are so much easier.
I know, pulling books sucks, especially in the Red States. Here in California we’re not putting up with that shit.
Oh and by the way, the books they pull, they probably sneak them home and get their jollies off of them.
Not only our, but the future generations, will be so grateful.
Make it against the law

Is it too much to hope for a new interest in books...?
The veil being where ignorance turns to stupidity by sharing it as information.
Are they all banned now?
But why?

We read it in year 4!
SO. MUCH. WILFULL. IGNORANCE
... Of mice and men!?
Madness
Of course, you don't have to be on Grinder either, but we both know you are 😉
people don't understand the importance of being well-informed,
of being a life-long learner in a time of incessant change
The internet age came into our lives, we became mesmerized, hypnotized, DISTRACTED, ISOLATED
Home alone behind our screens
No books!

Honestly. Let’s go by the library’s motto: “SSHHHHHH.”
