Book Bans Are For Weenies - EARLY ACCESS, AD-FREE, AND UNCENSORED

Hi. The free speech absolutists on the American Right really love banning books. They want you to think that people and history they don't like don't exist.

Book Bans Are For Weenies - EARLY ACCESS, AD-FREE, AND UNCENSORED

Comments

I work in a library that is one pretty large room. Our children's section is separated from our young adult section by a bookshelf and from the adult fiction section by enough space for a wheelchair to fit through. We're barely an afterthought for our county and we all make minimum wage. We can barely afford to buy a few new books every year. If this law that requires libraries to pay people who complain happened in my state, in my little conservative town in which I am one of maybe a few hundred liberals out of 9,000 people, our library would be bankrupt in less than a week.

Springfield MA has quite a few nods to William Pynchon. Parts of the city are named after him and there's a prominent statue of him in the downtown

IIRC, Comstock is still technically on the books, it was just made unenforceable by Griswold v Connecticut (and possibly others).

When did Schmidty the Clam start writing for you guys?! SMN seems like a perfect outlet for him to write about things that are still incredibly fascinating, but not so much "secret" as they are "alarming"

Cory Hammerschlag

Yes. I would argue too short. We need more Some More News! ๐Ÿ˜…

I love Vonnegut <3 Currently reading 'Galapagos'. I used to listen to The Vonneguys after finishing each of his books for the first time. Great podcast!

I had the task of defending slavery in Global studies, but it was Greek slavery so not entirely racist (and somewhat gay!). Happily i got destroyed.

Ahhh the Comstock act. What creepy weirdo losers. Hope someone writes a book about how much they suck

When a SMN video is 59:29, do we consider it a short video still?
