    The US does not ban books outright but they do ban some of them from public libraries, especially school libraries, and for good reason.

        What’s the good reason to ban a book?

        There aren’t any.

        Because it makes you think?

        Christ, no. “Making you think” is kinda the whole reason books exist, so I don’t know why you would think that?

          Probably because your previous comment said that books are banned “for good reason”

            It also said “public libraries” which the comment I replied to (intentionally) omitted.

            It’s a bad faith argument. They want to intentionally conflate removing books from children’s libraries with banning them from the country altogether.
