    I just had to find out what Moms for Liberty was. My life is a little worse for it, but at least their naming conventions have changed 0 since One Million Moms.

    Anyone who is promoting literacy (celebrity or otherwise) should be venerated. Reading core to development of a society, also new ideas make way for new ways of understanding. New understandings I think leads to more empathy which is rad.

    Also tran kiddos need as much escapism they can get. Trans teens to be reading for real.

        yeah basically. talk show, not podcast, but everyone was pissed about it especially because it happened like a week before the strike ended

    I'm not going to suggest that he's not a trans ally, because I would really love him to be. But I suspect it's more about it being an anti-book group.

      In their case they're basically the same thing, 90% of their brainworms are dedicated to treating any book that's pro-LGBT as if it was porn.

      i mean, they're anti-book because they're anti-trans. even if it's for a different reason i'm glad he's willing to fight them
