    Oh, I am well aware that people in the US are banning books. There’s a culture war against libraries… but the US, as an institution, doesn’t ban anything. Saying otherwise is disinformation at its finest.

      The US is a collection of institutions. If you go back to 1980 and find that every single individual republic of the Soviet Union is censoring The Hunchback of Notre-Dame (wild and nonsensical example), except for Latvia, you should still say that the USSR is censoring The Hunchback of Notre-Dame.
