so it's nice to see a lot of backlash against the proposed Missouri legislation overseeing material in public libraries, but most of the times I've seen it on tumblr it's been in the context of "this is antis' fault" or whatever and like. libraries have been dealing with this shit for ages, do we have to make it about the fandom drama du jour for anyone to give a damn

#i can promise you your tumblr squabbles over fanfic are not the primary influence #in a long history of library censorship struggles #and there are a lot of complex discussions going on in the library profession right now #about things like meeting room policies and collection development and content warnings #and the professional ethics of having something like anti vax content on your shelves #and basically we're talking about some similar issues except we're capable of being goddamn adults about it #and I don't love seeing my profession and state only mentioned to score internet drama points
