      What’s the good reason to ban a book?

      There aren’t any.

      Because it makes you think?

      Christ, no. “Making you think” is kinda the whole reason books exist, so I don’t know why you would think that?

          It also said “public libraries” which the comment I replied to (intentionally) omitted.

          It’s a bad faith argument. They want to intentionally conflate removing books from children’s libraries with banning them from the country altogether.
