Linking Dot<p>John Irving: “What are they banning? They’re banning books about abortion and they’re banning books on LGBTQ subjects, What they’re saying to young, gay, lesbian, trans kids, they want them to feel even more alone and isolated than they already feel. They don’t want those kids to have access to material that will let them know they’re not alone. They already feel alone. There’s a cruelty to that that is unspeakable.”<br><a href="https://mas.to/tags/lgbtq" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>lgbtq</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/BookBans" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BookBans</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/transgender" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>transgender</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/abortion" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>abortion</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/JohnIrving" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>JohnIrving</span></a> </p><p><a href="https://vtdigger.org/2023/12/27/best-of-the-vermont-conversation-literary-icon-john-irving-on-lgbtq-rights-abortion-and-the-last-chairlift/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">vtdigger.org/2023/12/27/best-o</span><span class="invisible">f-the-vermont-conversation-literary-icon-john-irving-on-lgbtq-rights-abortion-and-the-last-chairlift/</span></a></p>
