This is nuts: Hundreds of books have now been pulled from schools across Iowa, many due to a new law targeting depictions of "sex acts." They include:

1984
Brave New World
Slaughterhouse-Five
Ulysses
Critics of these laws have been vindicated. Free link:https://t.co/jWmRGzzhl0
After Scholastic created a category for LGBT/race books, thousands of fairs didn't include them, I'm told, though thousands did include them. Scholastic is understandably trying to help fairs survive these laws. Sadly, they are functioning as intended.https://t.co/jWmRGzzhl0 pic.twitter.com/4QrKHJ2xr3

Franklin, Tennessee Republican mayoral candidate Gabrielle Hanson stole images of women that did not know her, posted them on her socials and claimed they were supporting her campaign.

This experience is all too common for Asian journalists. Our credibility is constantly undermined by bad actors based on who we are, where we’re from or what we look like.

And the cost? Bad actors get away with it while an Asian reporter has to defend her right to exist.

dajo9's whining about democracy is just whining. It was democracy that held Trump's worst impulses in check. Meanwhile, we have actual fascism under Biden with the merging of corporations and academic think tanks doing the censorship that the government can't overtly do, but dearly wants to. So every time some Biden voter cries about the death of democracy, I just laugh at their stupidity which is in infinite abundance.
