I'm disappointed in the low quality of your arguments here. They border on bad faith, but, in truth, are probably simply lazy.

I googled "new law prison time for school librarians banned books" and the following was the top result: "School librarians face prison time for distributing banned books" (actual title slightly different)

In keeping with the ethos and guidelines of Hacker News, please apply the principle of charity and do a bit of research before doing a low-effort takedown of someone you disagree with.

>provide ‘obscene’ books to minors

If you had read my previous posts you would know that this is irrelevant.

By that standard the state has banned pretty much anything. Alcohol is banned in the US because giving alcohol to minors is a crime, see how absurd this argument sound if you apply it to literally anything else?
