    The US doesn’t ban shit, individuals hand down mandates to public institutions that then tell them to go fuck themselves.

        Oh, I am well aware that people in the US are banning books. There’s a culture war against libraries… but the US, as an institution, doesn’t ban anything. Saying otherwise is disinformation at its finest.

        In schools. There is such thing as curated material for children. You can call it ban, but do you want, for example, pornography available to anyone in elementary school library? Or Mein Kampf?

        Public libraries are different thing. No books are banned there.

      Please don’t lie to other countries. We’ve had several articles of libraries getting attacked by state legislature. Especially in Florida.
