The Dur thread.

Read that article. So much bullshit in there.

Gender nonconforming library workers in particular, like Meissner, are also grappling with growing calls for book bans across the U.S., with books about gender identity, sexual orientation and race topping the list of most criticized titles and making the attacks all the more personal.

“When we see attacks on those books, we have to understand that those are attacks on those kinds of people as well,” said Emily Drabinski, who is the president of the American Library Association and is gay. “To have my identity weaponized against libraries and library workers, the people and institutions I care about the most, has made it a difficult and painful year.”

So if you don't want schoolkids exposed to porn, is that an attack on straight people, or sex? Of course not, it's just not age-appropriate.

Total garbage article. The AP is another ruined institution.
 
Can we just all agree that people, in general, are stupid as shit?

No. I think people in general are inherently good. A small (relative to the number of people in the world) , loud group of people do not speak for everyone.

Same as sports fans. The loud, ignorant minority do not speak for everybody. I doubt anybody here paints their faces and acts like a complete retard every Sunday. But somehow, those people represent their fan base. And every team has them.

Same with politics. We like to think every Dem is a Pelosi/Feinstein/Schumer/AOC clone. But they're not. I don't like when people just assume I'm some MAGA zealot, or the same as Marjorie Taylor Greene just because I'm a conservative.

In general, people are stupid as hell. I didn't say anything about them being good people or bad.
