Not that I'd agree with them, but I don't see the inconsistency: cutting funding of libraries is smaller government. The question of whether school book bans violates the First Amendment is a contested one, and has some interplay with the current pushes on left and right to control what is available online. Basically, it revolves around whether you think determining what content is in a school library is censorship, or just one of the functions of government. The U.S. Supreme Court was divided on it the last time it came up. https://reason.com/volokh/2023/02/27/does-the-first-amendment-bar-public-schools-from-removing-school-library-books-based-on-their-viewpoints/ https://reason.com/volokh/2023/02/27/does-the-first-amendmen...
