A snippet " The Topic Concentration chart above lends the clearest picture into the implied rationale behind the bans. Namely, the bans are not and have not been about the physical removal of a book from a shelf. The bans instead are meant to:
Virtue signal by people in positions of institutional power to voting-age parents interested in school choice, parental rights, and wedge social issues to the detriment of non-voting age students
Reject and exclude topics that challenge a perceived status quo from the public discourse (e.g. non-heteronormativity, non-cis identity, non-traditional gender roles, and non-Judeo-Christian books are targeted) "
Whats awful about restricting what the government can use taxpayer money to provide?
When the restrictions come at the expense of marginalized or minority members of society who are every bit as deserving of representation in government services as normative groups.
Nobody is deserving of representation.
Waive yours, then.
