This thing will also possibly ban books that weren't ever written. Just as dumb and full of BS as the Republicans that want to use it smh

Sure, why not ban books that exist in potentia? If we can trade real money for pork belly futures, why not place a bet to ban literary futures? There needs to be a market mechanism to make this happen.

This is sarcasm, btw, in case people reading have trouble identifying it as such
