The liberal fact-checking website Snopes claimed that a realistic list of "banned" in Florida circulating on social media was "satire" rather than fake on Monday.

In its "fact check," Snopes examined an image posted from the Twitter account Freesus Patriot on Saturday claiming to be "Florida’s Anti-Woke banned book list," which included, among other titles, "The Lord of the Rings," "1984" and "A Wrinkle in Time."

Snopes journalist Bethania Palma noted that this list followed efforts by "Republican legislators" to limit explicit and political books in children’s schools.

"Amid a push by U.S. Republican legislators to limit children’s access to books in schools and libraries about sensitive topics, some social media users in August 2022 posted a list that allegedly contained titles of ‘banned’ books in schools and libraries throughout the state of Florida," Palma wrote.
