While harrowing and grim, this is a must watch for anyone even slightly interested in preserving access to all information. This doc shows how one domino can cascade into a much larger fight against tyranny. This film can be scary, if you let it, but it can also spark action that is so desperately needed.

Infuriating! It is beyond my belief and understanding how people can end up with these believes about their fellow human beings.

Es honestamente aterrador pensar en este giro ultraconservador que está teniendo el mundo. Lo peor de todo es que esta locura teocrática se está exportando a Europa y temo que de aquí a unos años lleguemos a este punto...

A few of my take aways. First: your child will be able to access far worse on the internet than the books in the library plus can get the banned material on the internet as well. Second: has anyone questioned what the adults are reading cause I’d be willing to bet there’s at least one who’s actually reading smut. Third: I’d be happy to show you what actual smut is cause what you’re banning is not . Last: why don’t you spend more time parenting your own kid than everyone else’s 😊
