Unpopular opinion: I used to think book bans were just about old stuff

Then I saw my local library in Texas pulled 'Gender Queer' last year, a graphic novel from 2019. It's not just history, it's happening right now with new art. Anyone else see a recent book or movie get pulled in their area?

Wow, that's wild. My cousin in Florida said her kid's school quietly removed a picture book about a penguin family with two dads. It really does feel like the goalposts keep moving on what's considered okay.

Saw a similar story about a library in Texas.
