Let's Kill Books
A new act, introduced to Congress, with the title, Books Saves Lives, is trying to grab power from local communities trying to remove filth and porn from public library shelves.
AOC, realizing her old intersectionality wasn’t enough to be victim, has decided to transition to being a man named Alex OC.
A new bill in Congress, introduced by 28 congressmen and women, aims to force libraries to keep books with radical Marxist-gender ideology and Child Porn in every community despite what each community decides.
This bill hinges on the claim it violates Civil Rights for underrepresented groups. Since the bill doesn’t define an underrepresented group, purposely keeping it nebulous, any group can enter this status or exit it depending on what a government official declares it to be. We know Liberals don’t think women are underrepresented if they don’t think men should play in their sports.
Men are an underrepresented group if they are delusional and think they are women. Since this decision relies primarily on intersectionality, then we know that a white man who is trans but believes he’s a minor and a minority has a higher status than a black lesbian.
Right now, this bill is in two separate committees. One of our local Reps, Eric Burlison, is on the Education and Workforce Committee. The head of that Committee is Virginia Foxx. Reach out to him and tell him to kill this act. Reach out to other Republicans and tell them the same, including Mike Johnson.
