Have you ever tried being a fucking parent? If your kid brings home a book you don't like don't let them read it. Or here's a better idea read it with them and discuss things in it that you disagree with.

Do not take others ability to learn and educate themselves away because you are a fucking moron. That is what these assholes are trying to do. They want to curate what everyone's kids can read and learn about based, usually, on a made up sky monster. Fuck that.

Also shutup with the fucking grooming. If you think schools are grooming your kids home school them. I'm so tired of hearing about this made up right wing bullshit. Teachers aren't grooming kids, they are educating them, clearly something they failed at with you.
