Exactly. If they feel upset, cry and a book will be banned.

you’re saying it’s the right engaging in censorship, not the left? seriously?
It’s conservatives tearing down statues, banning liberals from big tech social media, banning To Kill A Mockingbird? It’s the GOP embracing cancel
culture?
the state has rules. public servants have to obey the rules. there’s nothing new about parents expressing concern if they don’t like what they see in the classroom.
i taught public middle school, it never occurred to
me to attack parents for being involved enough to express concern.
sure it can go to far. but the existence of a way for parents to express concerns, is t any kind of red flag, certainly to any good teacher who’s not determined to indoctrinate his students

Glad you finally have put to paper that you support the statues of confederate idols
Colin K would say he got canc.
There’s a bill advancing in the Florida Senate declaring that an individual “should not be made to feel discomfort, guilt, anguish or any other form of psychological distress on account of his or her race.
Poor little snowflakes.

not for being black, not for embracing liberalism. For bashing the country in a dishonest way, in a way that might insult the leagues customers.
if i owned a business, am i required to employ someone ( at great cost, by the way) who goes out of his way to give the finger to half my customers?
i don’t have a huge problem taking down statues of specific southern, pro slavery insurrectionists.
But the left has gone way further than that. George Washington, Teddy Roosevelt? Come on.
