How is encouraging kids to read "woke"?
5 second google search: they're mad because one of the books is about pride and another is about drag

'Cause Pizza Hut is suggesting kids read a book they'd probably prefer to ban.
Yeah, it's not the reading specifically, it's the books that are recommended.
Obviously still ridiculous though.

Because knowledge is power and conservatives don't want people to have power.
The fuck? I was reading books to get a free small pizza from Pizza Hut back in the early 90s as part of the Book It program. They've been doing this for decades.
Ha, you think those people are clever? Their whole marketing gameplan is taking leftist terms and then saying them in a snide way.
The one new thing they got in years was Let's Go Brandon and they'll be chewing on those bones long after Biden's out of office.
Yeah, but it feels like they used to cycle through them much quicker than the amount of time they've been obsessed with saying "woke".
I WARNED YOU ABOUT THE PIZZA HUT
They warned me about The Pizza Hut. But what about Pizza THE Hut?
And "Let's Go Brandon" is just code for "Show me your butthole".
It's because it's dangerous to read as a conservative. If they read books that present different ideas and ways of life it shatters the conservative agenda which thrives on ignorance and being able to parrot simplistic hateful attitudes. Harder to indoctrinate a child who already knows there are better ways than hate
I WARNED YOU ABOUT THE PIZZA HUT
This is legitimately hilarious, both in and out of context.

Sometimes we cannot see the Hut for what it is until a harsh truth forces us to open our eyes.

For some reason you made me think of the Sim City 2000 transportation advisor.
The 'Book It' program was secretly socialism all along.
Also "They took everything from us!" when complaining about Pizza Hut is genuinely bat-shit crazy.

This is beautiful. Just missing the "YOU WILL REGRET THIS" at the end.
Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh when I was a kid we had the Book Club thing where you'd take your stamped card to Pizza Hut to get a free pizza. WTF?
did you even read the full screenshot of the tweet? they're objecting to pizza hut suggesting a reading list that includes "woke" books (ie, LGBTQ-friendly content for pride month). it's very obvious what their problem is!

It's not that they're reading, it's what they're reading.
That is, it's not the Bible, so they're angry.
This was my first thought reading the thread title. lol
For those who don't know about the great work she does gifting books to kids.

They probably could have made me a life long republican had they rallied against math when I was in school.
Nah they're riding woke right through the midterms.
Hell these people still have Obama and Hillary living rent free in their heads.
