Wait, Maus is a banned book?!
Good grief they don't even hide it.
That book is heartbreaking but necessary. Everyone who is not a nazi should read it.
If you think it needs banning you are probably a nazi, and definitely a toss pot.
It was banned because it contained a line drawing of the author’s mother in the bathtub, where she had committed suicide.
I’d argue that even the NotZs should read it… some might actually feel sympathy for peeps when it’s a cute mouse. :/
Joined a Banned Book Club. We only read books that have been banned in school or public libraries. Most of the time "why" is the most common question.
Why are you posting a AI image instead of a photograph?
Obsessed with this! 🤩 📚
How the fuck is Maus a banned book?
When the ‘cats’ are doing the banning ...
Resistance!
Well not as bad as in the sixties. When they made us read them!!
I refer to them as "Moms Against Liberty".
Im actually mad, why is Maus a banned book?
I love this so much.
Maus should be required reading in every school, as should Mrs. frisbee and the rats of nimh.
Also Watership Down
I still remember reading this; when I was about 12…
This movie traumatized me as a child lol. Bet my parents in the 80s said “oh! An animated movie about bunnies! Totally appropriate for our 5 year old!” 🤣
My scout leader dad loved westerns. He was also naive enough to think westerns in the 1970s were still rated like Roy Rogers flicks. Anyway, he took his Boy Scouts to see Little Big Man and I, still a Cub Scout, tagged along.
I bet you can't name ONE book that is banned in the US
They're still around??
Librarian here.
Once more….
Moms for Liberty say they’re for “parental rights.”
They are for neither.
They want to take away other parents liberty & right to decide what’s best for their own children.
MFL wants to decide FOR EVERYONE what may/may not be read.
They 👏 are 👏 fascists.
Wait where is maus banned ?
I have a "Mom's for Liberty" mom who lives two doors uphill from me. In her 5 years there, she has alienated even the MAGA'ts nearby. Not an easy task.
Republican women are the chunks at the bottom of the cesspool. You don't ever expect much frm Rep men but for WOMEN to behave this way is atrocious.
she must be a charmer
I don't know about that...
Alienating MAGAts is easier than bean farts.
America this is how we fight back.
💙💙💙✊
🙌🙌👍
How the hell has Maus been banned? It should be compulsory reading 😮
In the "old" days people of that type 🔥 the books. We over here in Germany remember that. I hope you remember that you sent your Antifa to stop them.
No, unfortunately most Americans today are too ignorant abt history & do not understand it at ALL! Nor do they care.

This is what we love to see 🩷 📚 🩷
"Maus" won a goddam Pulitzer Prize!
Not a good picture to make the point
Love it!
I'm speechless...😱 That's just the beginning...💙
They had enough people for a “conference”?
😂😂😂 Hahahahaha! There were 'fives' of them in attendance!
Indeed
Conservatives always name their groups for the things they're actually against. Liberty and book banning are on opposite ends of the scale.
Every #rightwing group that has either #liberty or #freedom in their name is fighting AGAINST both liberty and freedom
Love it!
LOVED Maus.
😂😂😂👍👍👍🔥🔥🔥
love this
I want in on this action
Fantastic. I think we should really start calling “Moms for Liberty” what they truly are: “Moms for Fascism”. We should always try to be more accurate😆
You have a lot going on there in San Diego

Maus is banned!
Because nothing says “liberty” like banned books.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Beautiful!
Oh you mean the New Daughters of the Confederacy⁉️🤨

Florida GOP Chair, Whose Wife Co-Founded Moms for Liberty, Accused of Sexual Assault amid Ménage à Trois Scandal

Yep. Apparently that's what they consider 'liberty'. 😏
Moms for liberty, more like skank for sHitler.
❤️
Hmmm, gee whizz, I wonder why would these moms for “liberty” want to ban books about the holocaust, like Maus? Is it possible they think the Nazis were pro-liberty?
Moms For Liberty: Liberty for me, but NOT for THEE.
👏❤️👏…Mothers for Liberty should be referred to as, “Klanned Parenthood” from this moment on
Happy Reading !😁👍🏼
Maus is banned? What for?? Is there a naked mousenipple?
And BTW Mamdani would not have banned Maus but you know who did?
Is there any bigger threat to their types of organizations than knowledge?
One thing I'm grateful my mom did, was let me check anything I wanted out of the library. Anything. As long as I was reading I was out of everyone's hair 😂 In 3rd grade the nun told my mom to stop me because I was reading so far ahead she said I'd get bored in class. Nope. I just kept reading
I've never understood any teaching wanting to hold kids back to what? Make their job easier? It's certainly not about what is good for the student. I bet this still happens, too!
We need to look to Finland to learn from their superior education system!

Books that result in critical thinking. Great idea.
Moms for liberty are steamingggggg, huh?
😃😃😄🙃🙃
Too bad, let the ppl read!!!!
#ReadToday #ReadTonight #ShareRead #ReadTogether
Way to go.
Is Bridge to Terabithia still banned? That’s such a wonderful and important book and movie. 
Read that as a child. Have never been able to re-read it but have never forgotten it
Good trouble.
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Hahahahahaha!!!! This is simply fantastic!!!
I didn't realize those dumb *unts were still around. 🤡
maus is incredible no wonder those freaks ''banned'' it
Maus is banned?!?
That is absurd.
All banning of books is absurd, but this one is extra special absurd
Genius!!
I love it!
Take that bitches! Books are so fucking scary! Shalom
Excellent!!
Excellent
Moms for Liberty is a domestic terrorist organization and must be classified and treated as such.
That is awesome!! 👏
Bravo! Doing God's work.
Maus is banned?
Who banned Maus?
There is one (1) image of a naked woman in a bathtub in it. That was enough for them to ban the entire book for ‘pornography’.
🤦♂️
The scene where he finds his mother dead by suicide in the bathroom?
The nudity is what bothered them there?
How sick is that ?
Yes. Even if in total context and not gratuitous.
Also some mild swearing like ‘Damn!’
Caught their husbands masturbating to it with their jack boots on.
Karens gonna Karen.
They should ban the Bible too cause it contains awful stuff in there.
But let’s not expect logical reasoning from these cultists…
I recall a clever person showing up to a reich wing school board meeting discussion of banning books. He summarized a bunch of horrible, R and X rated passages from a "book". School board was horrified and demanded the name of the book. "The Bible", he responded.
“For the last time, lady, of course there are naked people in this book, it’s am ANATOMY TEXTBOOK!”
And now, scrolling further through the comments I see this is what many are saying. Still, saw yours first and no point replying to the rest 😅
Exactly what I was going to say! It takes a truly close-minded person/full-blown nazi to ever think that Maus could be a negative influence in any shape or form 😩
Isn't that the group where one of the founders got in trouble because their throuple turned abusive?
Yes. Her husband was head of either a local GOP or the state GOP. They astroturfed the beginning of the “movement” and it was underwritten by GOP millionaires and billionaires. Any, that couple was a real class act. 🙄
Yeah, Democrats sure do love their gay porn.
We need to start calling them what they are, Moms for White Patriarchal Oppression.
👇
Everyone should support this !
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
nice
Is this in Phily? Today?
js ✌🏼
Bet Putin loves the name "Moms for Liberty" because it venerates the stupidity of white snowflake women.
What a perfect way to protest against these fascists‼️ 📚👍💙🇺🇸
Epic power move! 👏
So many of these so-called "Moms for Liberty" appear to also be "Moms for Adultery" and "Moms for Cocaine"
That's awesome!
What a great idea!!!
Good. Get more people reading. This whole "banned book" things is nonsense, anyway. We don't need to ban the books- we need better and more free critical thinking skills. #booksky #reading #read #criticalthinking
why do governments ban books anyway? I believe no book should ever be banned. As long as their disclaimers are clear on age and etc. They shouldn't....
Beautiful.🙂
What is the rationale, real or imagined, for banning Maus?
I LOVE THAT THANK YOU!!!!!
Go birds!
Wow, Maus is a banned book..!!? Staggering as it’s a vital description of the Hitler years and the slow creep of fascism…
It's really quite excellent. 👍
Absolutely… I worked for Penguin UK when our then CEO Peter Mayer brought Maus to our list… sold well as it should.
More of this, needs to be happening, please! 
Awesome! 👏🏻 👏🏻👏🏻
Stupid meme designed to appeal to the low-intellect BlueSky moron. No books have been "banned". Some inappropriate books have been removed from SCHOOL libraries... for good reason.
Yet they never ban the bible, a book containing ways to treat ur slaves, a story about daughters raping their father, and the god committing genocide multiple times. And yes, books are banned from being at some school, hence book ban.
Jawn!
Not a lot on the “why” they were banned, and where they were banned from
Love that, you go girls
Keep up the momentum!!!!
When and how did maus get banned?
www.mebere.com/mcminn-count...
JFC... Maus was so important to me growing up, to understand a real human connection with such an atrocity. It made it more real than simply learning about it in history.
Wait maus is banned now
If the idiot king and his nefarious ilk ever end, the USA must modify the 1st Amendment to prohibit racism, gender persecution, general hate speech encouraging violence, and anything that endangers life. Freedom of Speech is not the freedom to instigate violence, but is used thus in the USA...
Just like the 2nd amendment needs regulation.
Freedom of owning a firearm, is not freedom to use it whenever you want or get any firearm you want whenever you want…
There are already laws regarding discrimination and hate crimes, but this administration chooses to ignore them.
Superb!
Love this
Moms for liberty is as misleading as a title as truth social for conman Trump
Thus they AREN’T BANNED BOOKS 😂😂😂
Terrific!!!
Very 1984 to bann books
This is a wonderful display of activism!
Breaking news from the MFL conference in PHL in 2023. I double-checked because I've heard no mention of Moms for Liberty in years
How can an entity that wants to take away our liberties, call themselves "Moms for Liberty?" Their children must be so totally embarrassed or brainwashed.
Republicans have long been using the tactic of branding and cloaking their evil in the most absurdly positive terms.
The Save Act
The Patriot Act
The Big Beautiful Bill
And on and on and on........
The answer is, sadly, B. for brainwashed.
In speaking of freedom, they only mean their freedom to persecute others.

Wonderful! Take that KKKarens!
They banned Maus? What a bunch of Nazi dipshits!
Wow, am I late in my comment or what?
Wish I was there.
When they put a book on a banned list I get it read it and give it away at the coffee store I go
Best way to create a best seller is to put it on the banned book list
Encourage you to read @heykellyjensen.bsky.social to understand why this isn't the case. Or @ellenhopkins.bsky.social (whose brilliant and important books always top those lists.)
This is a strategy I can support. Taking it a step further, start a small in-home library by purchasing banned books.
💯
I've been building my library at home for the kids when they get older. Digital & paper. Including America's current move to Fascism. They WILL know what's happened!

What a thoughtful and powerful gift you will pass on to your children, and their children, etc. We are living in an existential historical crisis and despite this, must continue to work at least 40 hours a week to survive. All the while, we witness our government murdering and pillaging our people.
Great commitment. I purchase paper books. I’m not sure what’s to become of the digital platform in the future.
I agree 100% on digital being questionable.
I don't know if you use them already but I love Thriftbooks! Affordable.
Yes!

This could be the best thing I’ve heard in some time.
How many of the Mom's for Liberty excitedly grabbed a copy of Maus, only to be disappointed when they realised it wasn't Mein Kampf?
I'll take a Maus please.
Mom’s for Liberty? Which rooms are the orgies in?
I firmly believe in your right not to buy or read some books but for the love of God do not tell me what to read .

Excellent
Nice touch!

Why is there a Moms For Liberty conference in Philly? I think it’s funny when these groups use terms like “freedom” and “liberty” when they represent the exact opposite of those terms. Disgusting creepy fascists.
Still shocks me that they banned MAUS, but it does tend to paint nazism in a rather unflattering light, so I see the ratonale
Is Maus rly banned in the US?? Why I read that last week at Sunday School
Are they in Philly?
Maus!
moms for liberty is an oxymoron.
Moms *against* liberty
It boggles the mind that they would ban 'Maus' the first graphic novel to win a Pulitzer Prize, because of a minor display of nudity during a bathtub suicide by the author's mother Anja Spiegelman, who survived Auschwitz but suffered from severe depression. I mean, its a book about the Holocaust FFS
That’s the reason it’s banned. They don’t want kids emphasizing with what’s happening to people in ICE’s “detention centers”.
"Moms for Ignorance"
Raising the next geration of sex offenders and carnival ride operators.
Removing a book from a children's library does not make it a banned book, but "banned" book does sound way cooler than "removed as not age-appropriate" book.
I love this 💙💙✊
Every once in a while, there are these little bursts of excellence that show the brilliant capacity of humans. 🥹✊️ #Resistance
I see "Maus" by Art Spiegelman. I hope they also have "Anne Frank's Diary", not only to show them how rotten they are, but also because it's just a week after the 82nd anniversary of her abduction to be murdered.
I put some in one of those Little Libraries, in a very red area.
I LOVE this post.

Bryan Schott, a reporter for the Salt Lake Tribune, was fired after publicly offering to purchase banned books for high school students in Utah.
Here is a partial list of books banned in Utah Schools. It grows monthly it seems.

Ah Maus. Isnt that book antisemetic because it draws parallels between racism against blacks, and the holocaust?
/zynism
So mad right now.
Liberty is Slavery.
Nice work!
Love this!! 🙌🏾
"Banned books"- the expression does not belong in any Democracy
Why would anyone want books about sexual perversion and porn that was written for children?
I bet these people thought they were going to get something interesting until they started reading it and found out why it was banned!
Those Nazi bitches still exist? What a shame.
Twatzies suck.
Maus banned! Why?
“Moms for Liberty” must be an ironic name. They aren’t into liberty, and I doubt many of them are mothers.
Am betting those stupid 'women' don't even know what 'liberty' means.
