When I saw the list from the Edmonton school board, my first thought was it's a case of malicious compliance. Basically, you're given ridiculous instructions and you know you can't counter stupid decisions by making smart arguments, so you instead follow the instructions to the letter and let the idiocy make itself clear.
Putting Atlas Shrugged on the list forces the government to expose itself as hypocrites. Unfortunately, we live in a world where that just doesn't matter to a lot of people.
