What in the dystopia is going on in the south? Grief.

Jailing Librarians for choosing to be Librarians is called FREEDOM!

I think this is absurd. Libraries are places of knowledge and curiosity. If people aren't thinking critically about what they read, the government shouldn't put the blame on libraries and librarians. They need to be more worried about educating the public by funding schools to teach students through critical thinking instead of memorization. Yes, that'll be harder to achieve, but the change will be transformative.

Freedom of association?

Genuine question, but is this bill even constitutional? Article says no, but doesn't explain why. Still, a similar bill could easily say that people are not allowed to join any other kind of organization (except presumably a religious one), right?

Will attempt to criminalize. Until a 1a challenge overturns it.

Louisiana, like all southern states, is garbage. I visited New Orleans once. I wasn’t fond of smelling literal garbage and shit while walking through the French Quarter. I won’t be going back.

So there is no real surprise that the bills they produce in Baton Rouge smell just as bad.
