Scholastic found that it either had to give in to the hardliners who wanted to ban books for children or to not allow that, and they seem to have decided to give in.

Just because they’re outraged doesn’t make them right. Idiots get outraged all the time about things they don’t understand. Ask yourself, who is legislating these changes? It’s not Scholastic. So why are you acting like they’re the ones pushing for this? And ignoring that they didn’t call them “banned naughty books”. They’re called “books on inclusivity”. You just want to be outraged instead of thinking it through. Pretty sad on a community about books.
