President Biden went on the radio to claim that "Republicans are trying to ban books from school libraries. Freedom to read is fundamental to both education and democracy. The idea that kids can be told that they can't read certain books is a Nazi tactic. This is the United States of America for God's sake. Everyone should be free to read whatever he wants."
The kind of books targeted by Republicans are Gender Queer and All Boys Are Blue. These books contain overtly sexual themes and pornographic imagery. Maia Kobabe, the non-binary author of Gender Queer, agrees that the book is not suitable for children.
Minnesota Governor Tim Walz (D) argues that "exposure to these types of books is a critical tool for helping a child determine which gender is appropriate for them. Parents can't be trusted to provide this kind of literature. That's why school libraries and teachers have to step in to fill the gap. The stories these books tell and the images used in the illustrations provide vital information to help each child to make the proper gender affirmation decision. Democrats are the only ones who have the courage to defend this right to choose. The tyranny of arbitrarily confining children to the gender assigned to them at birth must be overthrown."

Sounds like something a pedophile would say
Come on Joe. . . Just because you like to sniff little girls does not mean the GoPee is discriminating.
They got us there. Do you think the average listener wants to hear the response? I’m talking attention spans. Just charge censorship or book banning-one or 2 words.
Explaining the content to protect 10 year-olds takes 2 sentences against their 2 words. They got us there.
You don’t waste time explaining how you are trying to protect the children. You start out by calling them perverts, something Savage would do.
It is not censorship to keep porn from underage kids. Correct? Has the world gone insane? Or are they just being idiots to make political points?
Adults are a different story. Still not good.
