Leave it to the corn-shuckin’ folk to be the first to lay their brains at the foot of our new overlords’ altar. 🤦🏼♂️
Of course the weak minded will eventually worship AI as a god. It’s very predictable.
There is a fun theory that AI will become a god, a vengeful one which will punish everyone who didn’t participate enough in its creation.
While I’m not familiar with all the books on this list they’re banning, the ones I am familiar with is enough to convince me they aren’t banning them because of “depications of sex”. (Not that that’s a reason to ban books in the first place.)
The Handmaid’s Tale by Margaret Atwood
Beloved by Toni Morrison
I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings by Maya Angelou
The Color Purple by Alice WalkerSure. You’re banning these for “depictions of sex.” Right.
The fact that A Court of Mist and Fury by Sarah Maas is on the list but not A Court of Thorns and Roses especially cracks me up. Mist and Fury is the sequel to Thorns and Roses and both do indeed contain depictions of sex. A number of them! But in the one they banned, the protagonist learns that the dude she fell for in the first book had been gaslighting her the entire time and essentially holding her hostage. And then she forms a much healthier relationship with a different guy in the second book, but I guess that’s not a good thing for young women to learn about.
