Well maybe parents should do that rather than the state? What’s bad about LGBTQ content and what does that even mean?

I swear, you folks will reach as far as possible to make book bans seem reasonable.

Who is "you folks"? I can think for myself, thanks. I'm providing some context for your naive or perhaps intentional misunderstanding of what is actually happening.

And who do you think votes for these decisions? The parents. So presumably many parents think that some books in school liraries are not age appropiate.

I haven't even expressed my opinion on this topic yet you are assuming my stance because you lack nuance. That's why I suggest you read the actual books that are being challenged and come back with a more informed perspective.

There are a lot of non-parents with strong opinions about this.
