| That's because they're not "free speech absolutists", they're fascists that want to force their own idea of what valid speech is on everyone else. |

| Same thing the far left does on college campuses. They just do it under the guise of victimhood with terms like "assault" being used to describe someone speaking an unpopular opinion. If the school book wars said the kids were "assaulted" by this "hate speech" would that make it okay? Is that what they are missing is someone feigning victimhood? |

They are fighting to get different books (less Eurocentric, for the most part) into the curriculum, but they're not removing them from the library. | | |
