What is the difference between the state curating media for my child and me curating media for my child -is that a serious question? I trust myself, I don't trust the state. I'm not sure I've ever seen any poster anywhere on HN that trusts the state.
With regards to "book banning" every example I've seen has been referring to a government library, so the state is involved either way. What is going on is that one arm of the state (elected officials) is fighting another arm of the state (civil service selected librarians).
Right, and the point of banned book weed is to highlight books that have been 'curated' from school libraries so that members of the community can review the works and give feedback.
If a middle school decided to curate away the Holy Bible, I'm sure many parents would want to be informed.
