Not really, Puritanism was originally concentrated in the north, yet the north is now more progressive than the south. Modern American conservatism which is concentrated in the South, the place that drew immigrants because you could use slaves to grow tobacco and get rich, is not related to the religious immigrants to America who concentrated their activity in the North.

btw as someone from the south, i see this all as kind of a psy op, we were never the most religious part of America, until basically the poor white people in the south got poorer and poorer due to slavery (see the Impending Crisis of the South book), and then slavery was ended which kind of left a huge gap in southern culture and destroyed our wealth so now we have just been the poor part of America with a shit ton of niggers left over. I think that our conservatism is basically a product of poverty and ruralism and not any historical legacy. The weird part for me is that I am from a part of the south that didnt have a lot of plantations and therefore was mostly poor whites who didn’t support the confederacy, but now there is so much confederate sympathy here even though historically we were never confederates.

Bait thread but it’s because conservatives have lost all socio-cultural power and have been frozen out of socio-cultural power institutions so they have no recourse but to The Political to engage in socio-cultural warfare. This is a great positive for the socio-cultural egalitarians, because despite being militantly intolerant of conservatives and their ideas in civil society, the conservatives can be framed as the militantly intolerant ones, despite the fact that the bans are being enacted under duress. In other words, this is conservatives tying their own noose but there’s no way out for them now beyond violent revolution (more The Political activity) because their enemies control the normative order, and have the power to define

Because "civilisation" is an illusion. It's not just America, it's every country that you think is civilised. England, France, Germany, Canada, Australia. It's easy to assume, because these countries have infrastructure, technology, "the rule of law", etc., that they have achieved some kind of Enlightenment ideal of an intelligently organised, reason-based community. But the fact is, the vast majority of people who live in these countries are simple-minded savages. Some are more trained in the jargon of the Enlightenment than others, but none of them really understands anything other than "me good, them bad". Let's take America as an example, since you asked about it specifically. The Constitution lays out pretty clear rules about how to maintain a country according to the ideals of the Enlightenment. One of those rules, which should seem obvious to anyone with more than two brain cells, is that the judiciary should be separate from the legislature. But in America today, if you ask people about the Supreme Court, there is literally nobody at any level of society who advocates that position. The court is viewed as an arm of the legislature. The different "sides" merely disagree about what legislation the court should or should not endorse. This demonstrates that nobody in America—not even the people in the very highest positions of government—actually understands the nature of their own political system. The political system is just theatre, what is really going on is pure tribalism. This is true of "both sides", of all classes, of all education levels, of all faiths. As social media enables more and more people to say what they actually think, it is becoming more and more obvious that politicians on all sides have vastly underestimated the extremist views of their constituents, and they will need to adapt in order to retain their jobs. The veneer of constitutional republicanism will crumble, and we will be back in the Dark Ages.

Read Albion’s Sneed. The Northeast Puritans was indeed far more religious than the Southerners but religiosity should not in this case be conflated with any kind of conservatism or “right-wing” orientation. The Puritans were undeniably radicals in their politics and especially in their views on power and hierarchy. The settlers of the South were disproportionately Anglican monarchists and Scottish rough and tumble warrior types. You can draw a straight line from the politics of each region in their foundation all the way up to the present. Tldr Puritanism=/=conservatism and this can’t be stressed enough

It has been said by the founding fathers that without good morals, liberty shall not last.
When books exist that paint vice as virtue, it is our duty to suspend the proliferation of such material.
Samuel Adams often proclaimed that virtue is the best security, or no state shall be free.

Samuel Adams
>Libertywill not long survive the total extinction of morals.
>The eyes of mankind will be upon you to see whether the Government, which is now more popular than it has been for many years past, will be productive of more virtuemoraland political. We may look up to Armies for our Defense, but Virtue is our best Security. It is not possible that any State should long remain free, where Virtue is not supremely honored.
>He who is void of virtuous Attachments in private Life, is, or very soon will be void of all Regard for his Country. There is seldom an Instance of a Man guilty of betraying his Country, who had not before lost the Feeling ofmoralObligations in his private Connections.

Benjamin Franklin also have said that good morals are the basis of public liberty and happiness.
>[O]nly a virtuous people are capable of freedom. As nations become corrupt and vicious, they have more need of masters.
>Whereas true religion and good morals are the only solid foundations of public liberty and happiness [...] it is hereby earnestly recommended to the several States to take the most effectual measures for the encouragement thereof.
>Sell not virtue to purchase wealth, nor Liberty to purchase power.
>Laws without morals are in vain.

George Washington said that
>Religion and morality are the essential pillars of civil society.
>[V]irtue or morality is a necessary spring of popular government.
>Can it be that Providence has not connected the permanent felicity of a nation with its virtue?

John Adams as well have said
>We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion [...] Our Constitution was made only for a MORAL and RELIGIOUS people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.
>Liberty can no more exist without virtue and independence than the body can live and move without a soul.
>Public virtue cannot exist in a nation without private, and public virtue is the only foundation of republics.
>[I]t is religion and morality alone which can establish the principles upon which freedom can securely stand. The only foundation of a free constitution is pure virtue.

The laws of man stand no ground to virtue, as it is the foundation of the republic. When public morals and virtue are at risk, and its vector of attack is focused on our most vulnerable youth, it is virtuous to restrict these forces exploiting the medium honored by our constitution.

Because parents having a say implies that there can be natural relationship of hierarchy between two humans. It also implies that individuals are part of corporative entities that incur obligations on them. The only relationship any human can belong to is that between them and the democratically elected State. Whatever this State does, you, by being a member of the democracy, automatically consent to.

Not my personal opinion, but that is absolutely how members of the government see it.

I don't disagree with the idea that kids shouldn't be exposed to a glut of sexual content, especially content meant to push a specific agenda in-line with the demands of liberal ideology.
That said, I don't know where these "lines" should be drawn and I am skeptical of the claims of those who insist that they do know. Should a high school library carry an explicit paperback romance for instance?
It also makes me uncomfortable that but for their sexual and political content, many of these books would be made available and I don't believe parents should have any say in what public libraries which serve adults carry, which is a power they do seem to exercise.

Best answer here. It's palpably clear with the Supreme Court where basically anytime the court makes decisions people dislike, suddenly you get people irl actually arguing that we should just get rid of them.
I think though it's always been rancorous and tribalistic. That's just politics. People like the fiction of a past were people were civilized. In the early 20th century in the U.S you have anarchists sending pipe bombs to politicians, labor riots, ethnic conflicts, and demagogues like Coeglin or Huey Long that gained mass followings.

You know when people talk about "banned books" in america its mostly either 2 things, a pr thing to say,
>"oh look how REBELIOUS and COOL these nono books are, its like a secrete or something! it would be really funny if you read them, haha"
then they have a little stand in the public library of some grade school that then no one but the midwit girl who spout basic bitch-isms proceeds to read. And it usually contains something like Catcher in the rye which was slightly titillating in 1955, and diary of a wimpy kid cause he had the cheese touch.
or
>Yah lets not spend school money on this shit to put in our grade school library since its not what the parent teacher group likes.

they are never actually "banned" in any real capacity more then what the word that serve as a snazy headline.
It literally takes 1 hick towns parents to say, "Yah I dont like Cummy mcfartfaces comming out" for a book to be considered """""""banned""""""" in common parlance. its not like a swat team gets called when the skinny kid pulls out Kite Runner;

For instance I think Captian Underpants and 50 shades of grey were also a "banned book" to give a sense of the level we are talking about.Its usually stuff that a slightly protective parent doesn't want their 8 year old to read.

well, i guess it technically is “banning” its just not a federal or even really state ban. they are more local organization parent-teacher association bans. though I guess its more a policy at that point since they cant directly ban it under law. but more like when a school has a an anti- fidget spinner “ban” in school but probably even less enforced.

regardless, yes its primarily used as a polemic device. im 23 and they even had that wording back in the 2000’s. it often was a subsection with catcher in the rye or the giver or some other very mildly edgy tome and i kinda got a wiff of bullshit even back then. its more a badge of transgressiveness more than it being an actual problem.

Arent you being dangerously eurocentric? Hasnt it been deboonked as fake news russian bot pseudoscience?Why read books by dead white men when you could have been watching CNN reading the NYT streaming the latest diverse and inclusive workplace comedies at netflix hulu and disneyplus? your daily mandatory dose of ''ethically sourced'' child pornography? Didnt you know reading antything beyond YA literature is ableist towards people who are too retarded to read? How does this further the short term electoral goals of the democratic party? Are you saying child sex workers arent real sex workers?Have you been taking your daily recomended dose of high fructuouse corn syrup your SSRIs and HRT? it is very important that you take the medication dr goldstein prescribed otherwise we will report you to corporate for mandatory sensitivity training as per the domestic terrorism act of 2021"

have already read lots of anti trans books so by this point id be more interested in reading pro trans literature. What could possibly justify this madness?what is some science or theory i can read which can help me check my privilege and learn more about the awful plight the diverse and vibrant culture of these warm body politically correct victimhood unit NPCs, this snivelling priesthood of pedophilic apparatchiks, cowardly hiding behind political correctness and victimhood in order to rape, groom abuse and indoctrinate our children, purpose engineered biopolitical clientele for pharmaceuticals, the managerial state, NGOs the corporate monoculture and the democratic party, i mean these most noble and progressive these most pitiful and wretched of creatures?

Any lgbt/ gay/queer theory/ transgender/ cultural marxism books you would recommend to a straight white cis male who is trying to overcome his deepseated heteronormative prejudices, and be a better ally to our politically correct friends in the corporate social engineering and propaganda/child molestation community? prejudices which cant help but flare up at the beautiful and heartwarming display of diversity and progress in article related?

The books really aren’t being “banned” in most cases.
The decision simply means that government or other organizations put the books on a list banning those entities from spending money on those books, or possibly having those books on the shelves, although banning the purchase of the books is more the norm.
Given that some of the Libraries that have been mentioned in news articles don’t have many basic publications,( like the National Electric Code, and basic Legal codes(I checked) ), banning the library from spending money on multiple transgender children’s books seems very reasonable.

Americans don't care. This is another bot/shill piece to market these books. You should consider anything you read on twitter as being related to advertising.

Americans are tribal savages. They have no regard for moral principles. Book burnings and book bans are just a natural consequence of this fact.

>>20997898
Book-banning is really being driven by the radical left which is invading schools and is intolerant to nuance and more interested in indoctrination than education. Of course, banning books is futile in the age of the internet . A running list of banned books is recorded, and it just signals to weird kids what the "cool books are" that the authorities they hate don't want them reading, thus having the opposite of the intended effect. But nobody said these people are smart.

Are you that guy who said Puritanism is genetic? In any case, I'm inclined to agree, although I feel that the descendants of those Scottish warriors exist today in their own woke form.
