Idiocracy (2007)

What books are those? The one’s that aren’t being banned? So we can learn what they want us to believe? Because they control information? Be a sheep if you want to. It’s not hard to let others tell you what to believe, what to think and what to buy. It is against the grain to harbor critical thinking and question what you know in your heart is not true. The topic is a movie. One in which idiots run the world. Which side of that fence are you on? I think anyone capable of questioning authoritarianism knows that already. I’m guessing you will never know. But you think you do anyway. And that just makes it sad. When one doesn’t know they are stupid, you have to feel a bit of pity.

Lord of the Flies banned
13-year-old Anne Frank wrote a diary too sexually explicit
the Culpeper County School District banned the definitive edition after a parent complained about its “passages detail her emerging sexual desires,” according to the Washington Post. However, the district soon reversed this decision, allowing the definitive version to stay in the library, while having classes read an older edition without the passages. Ridiculous, but still better than the time members of the Alabama State Textbook Committee wanted to ban Diary of a Young Girl because it was, in their opinion, “a real downer.” from mental floss
