B402, It looks you have been so hung-up on your own opinions for so long you automatically block out so much you read.
B402, I said fear and ignorance earlier. Just got - Opinion This GOP-targeted book is not the problem. Ignorance and fear are. [...] School libraries? I have the best interests of my seven grandchildren, ranging in age from 13 and older, at heart. When it comes to them, their parents’ desires outweigh mine. But I have no problem with my teenage grandkids having access to “Gender Queer.” This book delving into sexual orientation also should be available for parents who need insight and information into the world in which their children now live. https://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=175367526
That grandfather feels that. The author who sounds a very nice person feels that. Many others feel that. Yet you say:
"No defending that book, drawn as if for children and put within their reach.......Although I can now see that's fine by you and the board.......I thought the Nazi banning books issue was the wr finding some kind of wedge/identity issue for the culture wars..... I looked it up...... I could forgive someone who had never seen the book fighting the good fight...... Not after seeing it... You verge on paedophilia..... The very worst kind of human, same for any one who agrees with you....."
With that judgemental venom of yours you put that grandparents voice aside as if his feelings are totally unacceptable. Unacceptable. And you do the same with the voices of all others who defend the book.
That's you. A moralistic troglodyte of the worst kind.
It was Plato who said, “He, O men, is the wisest, who like Socrates, knows that his wisdom is in truth worth nothing”
