    Ah yes from the party who constantly whines about their first amendment rights being ‘violated’ on social media fires librarians for speaking out against actual censorship from the government.

      “Honestly, the fact that you’re not just rolling over and letting me fuck you is making me feel pretty uncomfortable. You’re taking an aggressive stance and I feel violated that you won’t let me control your rights. I feel unsafe continuing this conversation without flexing my second amendment rights.”

        The fact that I can’t predict your genitals is unsafe and I feel scared you have to die. Somehow you’re the snowflake.

    While on the subject of burning books, I want to congratulate librarians, not famous for their physical strength, who, all over this country, have staunchly resisted anti-democratic bullies who have tried to remove certain books from their shelves, and destroyed records rather than have to reveal to thought police the names of persons who have checked out those titles. So the America I loved still exists, if not in the White House, the Supreme Court, the Senate, the House of Representatives, or the media. The America I loved still exists at the front desks of our public libraries.
