Republicans ban books but.... X is flooded with sexually explicit images, no outrage by repubs?
Republicans ban books for fear a fifteen-year-old might read The Bluest Eye.

Meanwhile, the GOP's biggest donor has built an international salad shooter of child porn and Nazi propaganda, and Republicans are silent.
When one X user said their social media feed resembled a bar packed with bikini-clad women, Musk replied, in part, with another laugh-cry emoji.
'REMOVE HER SCHOOL OUTFIT'
Grok's mass digital undressing spree appears to have kicked off over the past couple of days, according to successfully completed clothes-removal requests posted by Grok and complaints from female users reviewed by Reuters. Musk appeared to poke fun at the controversy earlier on Friday, posting laugh-cry emojis in response to AI edits of famous people - including himself - in bikinis.
Ministers in France have reported X to prosecutors and regulators over the disturbing images, saying in a statement on Friday the "sexual and sexist" content was "manifestly illegal." India's IT ministry said in a letter to X's local unit that the platform failed to prevent Grok's misuse by generating and circulating obscene and sexually explicit content.
