So you believe the Trump Administration can censor the NYTIMES, WaPo, Disney (ABC), Comcast (NBC), etc because they are corporations that dont have 1st Amendment rights?
For example, "age appropriateness" is not necessarily an objective standard in today's day and age. There appear to be vastly divergent subjective views on what this means. Hence, this is why this issue gained steam.
The problem is that the professional public librarian may not be trusted by its public employer to decide this if there is controversy and a lack of trust over curated books. So that is why these debates come in.
Regardless of semantics, the criteria ("objective" or otherwise), the curation of books, and who decides on same is the main issue. That's the fight. Some books will be "banned" regardless because it doesn't meet someone's criteria. Within that framework, plenty of debate to be had on choices made.
Actually, you just highlighted your own ignorance about how voting works by using the old canard that a vote for z is really a vote for X. No, I'm a conservative. If anything, it's only slightly less ignorant to say a vote for 3rd party is a vote for Harris (since I'm more inclined to be an R)
As for the gender phrase, someone said that Bluesky was censoring it, so I was curious and tested the concept (it was not censored). I even state the purpose in my post.
So here is your first point of ignorance. So let me educate you.
I did a write-in vote. I did not vote for either of the two terrible candidates at the top. And I responded specifically to your comment about third-party voters (which you conveniently omit).
