Two members of Moms for Liberty, a right-wing activist group, have reported several Florida school librarians to law enforcement. They claimed they had evidence that librarians were distributing “pornography” to minors and requested that law enforcement officers be dispatched. This represents a serious escalation of the tactics deployed by members of Moms for Liberty against school librarians.
These right wing groups have fundamentally altered my perception of the meaning of the word liberty.
Welcome to the club. Used to be happy to see my country’s flag, now it usually denotes some wingnut who would burn it down just to spite others. I’m Canadian
“Liberty is when you never have to show basic tolerance towards things you haven’t personally approved the existence of”
Same applies to DeSantis and the word “freedom”.
Pretty sure they think it’s just a fancy word for homophobia
