    Ironically, probably not. Reality has this pernicious way of ignoring politics, and kids are incredibly good at outfoxing parental controls on the Internet. There’s at least two libraries in the US that offer free digital library cards to any minor in or out of state, and there’s lots of podcasts and online communities that value evidence-based truth.

    Basically the book-banning, while wholly reprehensible, is a fight they’ve already lost, and it only riles up the Conservative Boomers who are too ignorant to know it.
