Have you been voted out? Hello. Hello. It's Richard and Will. Hi, Will. All right, so you said like Charlotte's Web is getting banned. That's silly. I also think it's silly if one parent runs the whole thing. Right? But for sure, that's not every book being banned. Like, you know, I'm sure you've heard of Genderqueer. Yeah. Stuff like that should not be in schools. It's pornographic.
And in terms of Republican bills in Florida, I don't think, especially K-3, that there should be any official curriculum being taught to kids that is telling them about sexual orientation. However, I wouldn't go the extra mile and say we should get rid of every book that just mentions a gay character in the library. That's not a part of the official curriculum.
And no, I don't agree with the third term bullshit.
Sorry, backtrack. What were we just talking about just before you mentioned Trump?
Book bans.
Okay, well, first of all, they're not being banned in the sense that none of these books are banned in the state of Florida. They're being banned in local school boards, like you're saying. So there's no actual government law that's being written to ban books.
Okay, but I could say, I think it should be more than just one complaint, but I think parents coming forward to school boards and local government levels, because local politics is good. I'm not a fan of- Love local politics. I like local politics. So it's different than a statewide ban on books in Florida, which is not happening.
Okay, and in terms of the drag queen story hour, what is the upside to that?
