Your 6 year old goes into a public bathroom or is at a playground and you don’t know exactly what happens there out of your sight for a few moments* but he comes back and asks ‘what is a rimjob?’ I would think that you would want to determine where your kid heard this and why. Maybe you discover that a man over there is the source of this information. What would you do?
Alternatively, your 6 year old reads a book and then asks the same question. Do you feel much different because it came from a book? What would you like to do about it?
*I don’t know much about parenting today but when I was 6, we were not supervised constantly. We played outside, rode our big wheels in the street, and walked to the park without parents. Today, the kids will wait at the corner for the school bus and every single one of them will have their parent with them. When I was in grade school, we would wait with no parents. We also did not get parents input on school library books or even text books. My parents didn’t have the slightest idea what was in the textbooks except they were against teaching evolution and against teaching that Native Americans got a bad deal for their land.
That’s great presentation!! Writers strike!! Might be time for German tv
I wonder how many people have tried to shoot at a rainbow lol
Let’s be absolutely crystal fucking clear about one thing here.
It’s not anything to do with sex.
They want to ban books in which the nazis are the bad guys.
Will I ever not be embarrassed to be American?
Arjen Lubach?! On a subreddit that isn’t predominantly Dutch speaking?! A surprise, but a welcome one.
The guy’s talkshow is one of the highlights of TV in this country IMO. He’s a comedian first, but his items are always incredibly well researched.

I don’t think books should be banned.
However, consider this.
