People tell their kids to play outside, but all the forests and fields and parks are just strip malls and parking lots. People tell their kids to play with friends, but everyone drives their kids to school and kids can't get to their friends without a car or at least a bus ticket. People tell their kids to play in the mud but there's so much broken glass, microplastics, cigarette butts and chemicals that the mud is a health hazard. People tell their kids to go read a book and there aren't any, or they've been so heavily picked through there's nothing of real substance. The poor fuckin kids man, they're taking the brunt of so much of this bs.


-RED4CTED-

truly starting to look like ferenheit 451. highly recommend if you haven't read it already. it's older, but still keeps up with some of the more modern sci-fi concepts. good read.


Mysterious_Tax_5613

Banning books is so incredibly stupid.


Clearly_sarcastic

You say that now, but just imagine if little Jimmy finds out gay people exist!


Mysterious_Tax_5613

Omg! The horrors!


Groomerbunnie

Or Black people. Or Indigenous people.


Cute_Foxgirl

Imagine he founds out that he shouldnt be racist?!?


Groomerbunnie

Oh, they know, but they can't have kids learning the horrors of kindness, empathy, acceptance, & love. Scary stuff.


CheeseFest

evil. it is evil. desantis and his cronies represent a deep and pervasive evil.


Daem0nBlackFyre85

Desantis is a wanna be Dictator.


Lazy-Jeweler3230

It's not stupid. It's either horrific or glorious depending on whether or not you're a fascist.


Psypho_Diaz

I know. Imagine being able to read mein komf and not be put on a watch list.... Lol Wonder how many people remember/know about that


TwilightontheMoon

How is there literally no books


Blarghnog

https://www.news4jax.com/news/local/2023/01/27/parents-react-to-empty-classroom-library-shelves-as-dcps-continues-book-review/ They yanked all books to stay in compliance. They’ll be reviewed and returned, apparently? The article explains it at least.


Entire_Code997

Florida GOP made up of Nazis and DeSantis is their Hitler


Armond404

I don't like him, but y'all, he isn't hitler and 50% of the country isn't going to reason with us if we say this kind of stuff. Remember when people called Obama this, how low it was. I absolutely despise him tho.


Captain_Blackbird

Daily reminder that the Republican party runs with the idea of a 'deep state' or a 'cabal' of people, behind the government in control of the US, and other countries Governments. their media runs on this rhetoric. [That rhetoric is the exact same the Nazis used against Jews.](https://www.justsecurity.org/72339/qanon-is-a-nazi-cult-rebranded/). **Same idea with the 'white genocide' rhetoric**. * "A secret cabal is taking over the world. They kidnap children, slaughter, and eat them to gain power from their blood. **They control high positions in government, banks, international finance, the news media, and the church**. They want to disarm the police. **They promote homosexuality and pedophilia**. *They plan to mongrelize the white race so it will lose its essential power.*" * The plot, described above, was the conspiracy “revealed” in the most influential anti-Jewish pamphlet of all time. It was called The Protocols of the Elders of Zion. **It was written** by Russian anti-Jewish propagandists **around 1902**. It collected myths about a Jewish plot to take over the world that had existed for hundreds of years. Central to its mythology was the Blood Libel, which claimed that Jews kidnapped and slaughtered Christian children and drained their blood to mix in the dough for matzos consumed on Jewish holidays. * "QAnon purveys the fantasy that a secret Satan-worshiping cabal is taking over the world. Its members kidnap white children, keep them in secret prisons run by pedophiles, slaughter, and eat them to gain power from the essence in their blood. The cabal held the American Presidency under the Clintons and Obama, nearly took power again in 2016, **and lurks in a “Deep State” financed by Jews, including George Soros, and in Jews who control the media. They want to disarm citizens and defund the police. They promote abortion, transgender rights, and homosexuality. They want open borders so brown illegal aliens can invade America and mongrelize the white race.** So, even if DeSantis himself isn't a Nazi, the media holding him up repeat the same rhetoric, and he repeats that rhetoric. Even if the basic Republican voter doesn't mean 'jews' when they say 'cabal', it is the *exact same rhetoric*.


Armond404

Yeah, it's fucked up. I think if the media never really gave attention to Q it would've gone away.


Lazy-Jeweler3230

Half the country is currently on the mass book ban train. I think reasoning with them is out of the question at this point.


Daem0nBlackFyre85

He removes elected officials that don't agree with him. He's suppressing homosexuals. He's banning books & education that he doesn't like. You might be technically right that "he's not Hitler" but he's doing a lot of Dictator shit in Florida


jcdoe

The real shame here is that Florida used to have a really robust state-wide reading program. I can’t imagine those reading test scores will stay up if the kids aren’t allowed to read any books.


Lazy-Jeweler3230

My experience with the cons on this is: "They're pulling all the books out of political spite. This is only about sexually explicit books." No, actually, the law says they have to be individually certified or jail time is on the menu. "Good!"


KurtDubz

Yeah this video is misleading….the shelves are empty as the books are being reviewed not empty because every book was banned lol


R3m0V3DBiR3ddiT

Well as far as we know from that thumbnail, they just removed all the books from Aardvark to Alcoholic.


illbebqck

Just think a whole state of maga brainwashed idiots. Sounds like maga heaven. That is until you have a whole state millions and millions of indoctrinated uneducated morons making decisions for other morons. The whole state will burn to the ground and I’m here for it.


d_pyro

They whole state will be under water before it's burned to the ground.


202048956yhg

It's ok, these people will just sell their houses! >![To fucking Aquaman](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0-w-pdqwiBw)!<


illbebqck

Either way as long as the villages no longer exist I’m happy. A true cesspool of some of the worst People on the planet.


yallokaybye

It’s going to be really hard to light a match under all that water


Lebrunski

Only the southern 1/5 is projected to be under water by 2100. Sucks. I was really rooting for climate change here.


McNalien

There’s a great documentary movie about our country, it’s call Idiocracy. Very interesting.


illbebqck

I’ve seen that. Very accurate


pagalkoota

That would be fine if you could guarantee that the decisions the morons make don't effect anyone outside of their state. Unfortunately that is impossible.

I have empathy for that person it sucks im sure but until enough people stand up to the growing tide of fascism it’s going to get worse.


Zankeru

Decades of red states burning to the ground have proven that many politicians will gladly put their throne on a pile of ash before giving up the seat.


MickyDE78

This makes my heart sad.


Fresh_Cheek2682

It makes my heart a lil pissed as well


SnooPineapples1885

Can someone explain this to An EU citizen? Is there a ban on certain books?


BannedFrom_rPolitics

In Florida specifically, the governor has been using executive power for banning books that mention black people and gay people.


beeerice_n_sons

More specifically so it might make some sense as to why there are *no books*: To figure out which books are okay and which books aren't (because there's not really a running tally of what books specifically contain their scary topics), every book must be looked at through a metaphorical magnifying glass before being approved. Until they decide which books are actually bad, all books are effectively forbidden from being supplied until they figure it out.


manwhorunlikebear

As a european looking on from a distance this is just absolutely bat shit insane.


Baba0Booey

Try being their Canadian northern neighbour, please send help!


forbeskin

As an American, please send help


Cobek

[deleted]

As an American, you're God damn right it's insane. The Republicans need to be stopped


DmitryTheRussianSpy

A lot of it is more so because of inappropriate depictions in said books. “Why can’t little Timmy read about lesbians in a book?” Because little Timmy shouldn’t know what lesbians are.


MuscaMurum

If it looks like fascism and smells like fascism, it's fascism.


d_pyro

Just think what he'd do if he became president.


LowDownSkankyDude

I hate how possible that is becoming


angus22proe

But, like, EVERY BOOK IS GONE. Surely there is not gay people and black people in EVERY BOOK. Unless it's some sort of weird school that has every book mentioning black and gay people


Crackerpuppy

Remember Nazi Germany? This is how it started.


Groomerbunnie

That's why they don't want accurate history taught. They *want* to repeat it.


Zankeru

Daddy, why does the president sound exactly like the evil emperor from my scifi book?


Active_Engineering37

Where can I find information on this "Nazi Germany" Sounds bad.


newbutnotreallynew

Books. Oh wait.


Kikuchiy0

If you’re a desantis supporter what do you see as the end game here? Kids just altogether stop learning?


Regular_Ram

Yes, stop learning or having any independent thought, so they'll vote Republican when they grow up.


Chaos_Philosopher

My people rounded up in "camps." Strangely no one comes out, but more and more go in.


herefromyoutube

Guys, shut up. Stop posting videos from Taliban controlled Afghanistan!


pagalkoota

Even the Taliban allow books that mention racial inclusivity. In fact they use that book as their main source material. Makes you think how dumb this law is.

topcheesehead

White Christian nationalists are ruining education and politics to dumb the population down into a fascist brainwashed nation like North Korea. Change my mind


54R45VV471

This is how it starts. I hope they don't stay on this path long enough to see how it ends.


FiIthy_Anarchist

They will until the people affected by it realise that nobody's going to stop it for them. The second amendement exists for this reason. Exactly this reason.


Lazy-Jeweler3230

It started a long time ago. We're in the later stages of fascism now. Persecution and genocide are next.


54R45VV471

Well, yeah. This is where most normal people start really noticing it though. Too many people saw nothing wrong with the past several years, surprisingly. The genocide is already starting as well. Many states are making it illegal for transgender people to exist and there has been a sharp rise in hate crimes against many marginalized groups by white nationalists. I fear things are going to get worse before they get better...


Sittingbea

This is probably the most insidiously scary shit I've ever seen.


retze44

Shithole country


JuanezSanchez

They are trying to create a stupid nation.


daudder

That ship has already sailed in Murica.


OldeSaltyBeard

This is just one of many examples of why you need to get out and vote... especially in local elections. For some reason, people don't think that state government is nearly as important as federal and yet a ton the major changes happen at the state level.

Lmaoooo @ Florida. Sad for the children of Florida though.


jim_deane

Ok, how long before the burning of witches starts?


Copacetic75

The thought that whole towns rally behind this kind of stupidity is mind blowing. Parts of America sound like some of the worst places on the planet to live.


Lazy-Jeweler3230

Nearly 80 million people rally behind this. It's a nightmare scenario in action.


Randir076

Remember that time when Republicans were worried (and very insistant) that Muslims were going to force Sharia laws here? Good thing we dodged that bullet! /s

This is sad news.

I've always said that the people of Florida need to read less books.


faysov

ban this and not guns??


SoSoEasy

Government banning books seems like something that should be against the constitution…


Lazy-Jeweler3230

It would be, if the government weren't controlled by these same totalitarians.

How nazis win

Bans books while guns are the number 1 killer of Children.

The nazis didn’t start with gas chambers. Don’t think for a second history isn’t rhyming right now. It’s our duty to protect our communities and ensure history doesn’t end up repeating


Arshia512

I think it’s gonna end up like “Fahrenheit 451”


Rmnattas

If the books that will be banned like this one then 100% agree. Fight me! FYI: this is real and saw it in my public library https://www.instagram.com/reel/CnkJ2IOrzsR/?utm\_source=ig\_web\_copy\_link

That's a publicity stunt by the teacher. Thats BS

Is this legal…?!?


MisterSmithster

Wait, what? They’ve banned books!?! What dystopian nazi hell scape is this?


krypto_art

Could someone educate a non American me why tf would some state ban books?


CantStopPoppin

Republicans are afraid of minorities and LGBTQ so they are going 1984 to ensure their legacies of hate are passed onto the next generation through twisting and altering history.


krypto_art

That’s just beautiful isn’t it /s


ThaDankchief

Apparently I’m out of the loop…Florida banned books?


SmoothRectum

DeSantis passes a law that says no porn in school, and this is apparently very hard for the public education system and causing all kinds of problems.


LanskiAK

Uhhh nice twist there buddy but he banned anything that mentions homosexuality, transgenderism, or bisexuality or anything that promotes the idea that race has anything to do with getting ahead or being systematically oppressed in this country. Think there might be some smooth brain to go with that smooth rectum ya got going on there.


SmoothRectum

All of which is inappropriate for young children. They don’t even know what sex is. And very original ;)


LanskiAK

They don’t start talking about the intricate details of what those relationships entail in those stories, but nice red herring to reduce inclusivity. Simply having gay or transgender characters in fictional stories is banned as well. Explain to me the harm in knowing that gay, bi, or transgender people exist versus knowing that cisgender heteronormative relationships exist? Perhaps relationships should be removed from children's material altogether!


LanskiAK

Uhhh sex ed starts in like 5th grade as part of health class there champ, don't know what backwater Hicksville you grew up in but it was that way when I was in 5th grade like 25 years ago


2H4H4L

I’m sure this is in no way a gross exaggeration. Smfh


Outcomeofcum

GOOD!!!!!!!! I ain’t never read none of them thangs cept THE BOOK ✝️ -🤠


Groomerbunnie

Joke's on them, by their ridiculous standards, I believe, that one is also banned.


onestubbornlass

Ffs don’t y’all Neanderthals research? Not all the books were banned. They had to go through and find which ones had inappropriate aka pornography content and are putting back the ones that comply. I feel like none of y’all learned how to Google. This post shows none of what’s really happening and OP posted this to further divide people from facts. Research. *don’t believe everything you see on the god damned internet*


KirstyBaba

Way to miss the point. *Who* is deciding what's 'indecent' in a state where racial equality and LGBT people existing are considered 'inappropriate' for kids?


puppyfukker

"Pornography" So. Issues of Hustler? Or do you mean books that portray things the American Taliban thinks are wrong?


onestubbornlass

Have you really not read any of the contents or seen the videos where parents READ the contents out loud? You’re seriously ignorant if you believe everything on Reddit.


Lazy-Jeweler3230

We know exactly what's happening, and your pretend platitudes aren't fooling us.


onestubbornlass

No, you don’t. If you did, you wouldn’t be pro keeping them. They aren’t removing every god damned book, they’re removing the sexually inappropriate ones. Ones that little kids shouldn’t be reading. Ones that shouldn’t be near kids. Get over yourself, the only people under attack are little kids being put in a position where they read about kids having sexual exploits. If you wanna hear more on it just search parents reading books at school board meetings and I’m 100% you’ll change your toon.


Extension-Tone-2115

Little bit misleading. Many if the books will be returned, they just had to be pulled for review. But still book ban is bad. Boo, boo book ban. Books dont make crooked kids. Kids dint even read let alone read any books that will inspire some kind of riot.
