Conservative cancel culture once again rears its ugly head!
Not content with simply banning books, prude right-wing Evangelical squares in the Enid area who want a monopoly on indoctrination are now setting their sights on library book displays.
Yesterday afternoon, The Enid Library Board of Directors voted to recommend to the city prohibit the library from creating custom decorative displays that promote hedonistic, non-Evangelical approved topics like “the study of sex, sexual activity, sexual perversion, sex-based classifications, sexual preferences, sexual identity, gender identity or that are of a sexual nature.”
Basically, they want to make Enid home to the most boring library in the world.
Naturally, the reason for the proposal isn't to keep 50 Shades of Grey and Danielle Steele classics from the eyes of church-going Enid housewives. No, they want to prevent the library from doing things like making special book displays for things like Pride Month, because you know, the gay agenda or whatever.
Here's how the Board's chair, Joseph Fletcher, justified the decision. Via the high-flyin' Enid News-Eagle:
