I Built a Banned Book Library in Texas

Will someone please ban my books somewhere so they qualify for one of these libraries?

What a performative hero Ryan is. So brave.

cool project. mostly looks like a fulfillment center with a mission statement

Thanks for building such a cool place. Be kind.

Ryan still lives in the 1950s. The greaser look, all of it. Bro, you know we have the internet, right?

Are there any books banned about Stoicism?

Creating the freedom to read that’s 🔥🔥

Building a banned book library in Texas? That takes guts. Curious what titles you picked for the shelf.

Marxist clickbait. Total sellout.

Will there be a book burning to celebrate the opening of the library?

Pretty interesting. I always thought a book store that specialized in controversial books could be profitable. Especially banned books and conspiracy theory books. But in America, are there really any books that have officially been memory holed?

The books that get banned are usually the ones that made someone in power uncomfortable enough to try and disappear them. That's not a bug. That's a signal. I've got a kid who's 12 and already forming opinions on what's worth reading versus what's worth scrolling. The stuff that scares adults is usually the stuff that's actually teaching him to think. Good on you for building the counterweight.

Removing books from a library is not the same as “banning books”. Are you really this naive?

Oh boy, are these steps to becoming a full time activist

Also, good on the Naval Academy for kicking you to the curb. The military doesn’t need you to insert your woke crap into any academy.
