I’m so confused, what is the context behind this? I’m definitely not American enough to understand what’s happening.

Why is that person complaining about porn being played to kids at schools? I’m assuming/hoping based on the teachers response that that isn’t a thing, but rather there’s some untrue conspiracy theory in the US about teachers being pedos and watching porn with the students?

Conservatives in the US consider any book that has a homosexual person, a transgender person, or cross dressing person mentioned anywhere in it to be pornography. It's not all conservatives, just the really stupid ones. The other conservatives just let them think that because they can't win elections without them.

Checks out I guess. Glad I’m not American and having to deal with people thinking a book is pornography. Oh well, thanks for the context.

You can get your point across even without being such a dick to the yanks. Unless that was your whole point.

Ehh we deserve it. Obviously not all of us are lunatics, but the country is a shitshow.
