First, what a poorly written article. Looks like AI.
Next, fuck that store. They caved and moved books that bigots complained about, because, to them, LGBTQ is immoral and they think they are protecting kids from this immoral influence.
The store should have refused, then shown some balls and have a display at the entrance focusing on LGBTQ stories and history.

The whole thing on the pretense of “think of the children. “ is just gross.

Especially when they support politicians that want to legally marry children and send them to work in the mines on a school night. And it's never been a secret that these politicians are a bunch of kiddie fiddlers. In fact, southern (red) US states have a reputation all the way across the ocean here for being where the products of incest, teen moms and preachers that can't keep their hands to themselves in youth group all live.
It's no secret. And yet masses of people voted for this scum to "protect the children" from drag queens reading books in public libraries. I don't know if these people actually believe the lie that they tell when they say they care about the children but I sure as hell don't. Because it's pretty clear to me with my own eyes and my own brains that these people willingly handed their children over to the most prolific predators and pedos of all.

Now the pro-LGBTQ+ employees are jobless and there's nobody to push for those books being put back on the shelves. They'll be replaced with bigots.

They got fired for refusing to pull the books and you think their boss (who is parroting right wing shit about protecting the children) is going to let them repeatedly bring up that they shouldn’t have been removed? You are writing fanfic.

All my local bookstores have big "BANNED BOOKS" sections right in front of the front doors, covered in rainbow flags.
Not like, the closest bookshelves, but RIGHT in front of the doors. If you stood on the sidewalk and looked in through the glass doors, you could see each and every book, the write ups, and look at their cover arts.
