I searched my library site for "clean jokes." Only five titles were listed, all pornographic and explicit titles.
I complained; library's reply: "There are no pornographic images or other content in any of the results that meet the definition of obscenity.”
My reply to their non-response: Your comment is not only a red herring, as I wrote not about “obscenity" but about results that were the antithesis of my search, but it is also meaningless, as the American Library Association (ALA) argues that since obscenity is subjective, nothing can be defined as obscene. Furthermore, the ALA has waged a successful, decades-long campaign to ensure that taxpayers subsidize the nihilistic amorality of a privileged, artistic elite (who’s to say what is obscene?!) and, hypocritically, the soft-censorship of views at odds with theirs.
Many who promote the “nothing is obscene” philosophy are pedophiles and sexual predators who, along with the rich, nihilistic elite, use artistic cover to promote physical gratification as a moral imperative.
Of the 698 joke books in the system, only the five pornographic or explicit ones have “clean” associated with them. This is not a random function, but an insidious code.
what’s a “hoopla”?
I have hoopla and did a search on “Clean Joke” - it returned many more than five and no pornography.
Maybe you should consult her
She is in her eighties, so she knows best.
On a tangent:
I’ve been watching “Dry Bar Comedy” occasionally on YouTube.
Some funny standup routines.
“ Many who promote the “nothing is obscene” philosophy are pedophiles and sexual predators who, along with the rich, nihilistic elite, use artistic cover to promote physical gratification as a moral imperative”
Well , isn’t that special? ( in my best church lady imitation)
I call BS on this. I ran the same search which returned 1,000s of entries and none were remotely pornographic
Maybe you were hijacked by Moopla.
This is usually caused by tracking scripts remembering previous websites already visited on that browser/machine. They track what you were looking at and try to sell you more of it.
