This sparked a backlash from Matt Taibbi: "Amy Klobuchar, you suck"
These people are the worst. I would pay money to watch them all mauled by bears. Senator Klobuchar, Mr.Bezos, esteemed editors of the Washington Post, to hell with all of you.
They hate free speech. Simple as that, demonstrated over and over.

The Left hates free speech, a continuing series, demonstrated over and over and over:
From January 2021 to June 2023, state lawmakers introduced 392 "educational intimidation" bills.
Educational intimidation bills create “the conditions for censorship indirectly, threatening the freedoms to teach and learn with death by a thousand cuts,” and “pressure educators to be more timid in the content they teach, pressure librarians to be more restrictive in the books they make available to students, and pressure students to limit their self-expression.”
“This rising tide of educational intimidation exposes the movement that cloaks itself in the language of ‘parental rights’ for what it really is: a smoke screen for efforts to suppress teaching and learning and hijack public education in America,” said Jonathan Friedman, director of free expression and education programs at PEN America.
Only four state legislatures had not seen this type of bill.
377 of these 392 bills were sponsored solely by Republicans.
The wave of legislation documented in the report is complementary to but distinct from “educational gag orders” that explicitly ban materials and content.
Such as in Iowa, a moderation law passed by Republicans led to George Orwell's "1984" being removed from school libraries.
Republicans imagine a boot stamping on a library card – forever.
