Exactamundo. 
And they're always the ones crying about "indoctrination".
I would like to not only have a list of approved books. But a list of books that do not meet approved standards. And they should have this list on a publicly accessible website. 
So everyone can "know" which books are so subversive. And have them listed by catagory and topic. And let the Streisand effect take place. >

😁 pretty sneaky. And it would work, too. >

I love libraries and book stores that have a banned book section. >

TEACHERS IN FLORIDA:
Washington state has a teacher shortage.
We have liberal areas and conservative areas.  We have urban areas and rural areas.  
We even have conservative urban areas and liberal rural areas.
Florida is a beautiful state, with dolphins and manatees.
Washington is also beautiful with orcas, rain forests, and skiing.
And most of the state is well above sea level.  I can see the Puget Sound from my window and have never been in a flood.
We have no state income tax. >

For the Florida teachers who don't wish to abandon their students or can't move for any reason:
OpenLibrary.org is a free, digital, public lending library completely online.  Now might be a good time to introduce your students to it.
You might not be able to give them books anymore, but that doesn't mean they can't get their own. >

Just wait until Ronny starts to demand ISPs in Florida begin to filter such websites. >

I think they'll find that forcing ISP's to block websites is much more difficult than bullying teachers. >

Okay. But is it harder than overseeing torture of innocent people in an offshore US military prison? >

Either I don't get your joke, or else your tinfoil hat is too tight again. >

Jesus. So he oversaw/prescribed torture for detainees in one place and then was sent to another to be in charge of making sure their human rights weren't violated? I already despised this sick shit and knew he was dangerous but that's just more proof.
Sad thing is is that there's a ton of Florida voters who would be happy to hear about his work at Guantanamo. I can just hear them now: "those terrorists deserve everything he gave them and then some!" Never mind that there are people being held there that have never actually been charged with a crime. >

Am I the only one picturing "Manatee Teachers"? >

Lmao. Me too for a half-second. Not knowing that is a place, and knowing Manatees are pretty intelligent mammals, I was like...'they have teachers? Is 'classroom' some related term to 'school' for aquatic mammals versus fish?.......[reads more] oh...that makes more sense.' >

Who's the hero putting up "Little Free Libraries" all over the Florida suburbs? >

Republicans: Remember kids be a free thinker and don't trust the government, but do what we say and always comply with the government because the government is your friend. >

I can't imagine being a parent, or a teacher in Florida right now, much less a student.  What a horrific environment to try to navigate with your kid(s). >

The party of "small government", yet they tell you what books you can or cannot read, what you can or cannot teach in school. They're telling you how to raise your own children. >

And they're telling you what's normal, and what's not.  As a government, they're telling kids who they have to be to fit in, and who must be shunned because they don't fit the rigid guidelines established by Republicans.
It sounds like a dystopian novel.
