Book banning is shameful and a disgrace, those who are scared of knowledge are really scared that someone will better themselves and ask questions of those doing the banning.

If your government wants to ban books ask why. Why do they want to ban books on let's say gun manufacturing. Well they don't want their citizens to have the ability to defend themselves against the government, sure they will wrap it in some other reason like saving children or stopping crime, but really they know they are not working for the people of that country, and they worry that the people will find out and come after them. In a true democracy the people would just need to vote out the politicians, but there aren't any real democracies just the illusion of democracy, which can be seen in the USA at the moment.

Knowledge is never a bad thing, some knowledge might be painful and hurtful but in the end you are better off knowing, one way or the other.

Build your own libraries of knowledge banned or otherwise, share it with people, help people understand what you are sharing and why. Use the knowledge to help and not to hate, but at least you will know what hate is and help people improve their lives by understanding who is pulling the strings.

Can you imagine that knowledge is bad 😞.

And do not think that I don't realize that there is bad knowledge being shared by evil people, but at least you can combat those people with good knowledge and be able to see who is spewing that knowledge, and then call them out for it.

Ramble complete.
