Ah, see you made a mistake in step one by expecting Republicans to use logic.
Basically the timeline near as I can tell is, first the publishing company decided to stop printing and distributing a number of books. This was their own internal decision not prompted by anyone outside the company. Second Fox News invented a story from whole cloth about “the woke left” banning those books. This of course got all the talibangicals in a lather and so they decided to “retaliate” by banning “woke” books. The fatal flaw of course being that they can’t actually define what “woke” is so that just flailed randomly against some minority groups. Because of the broad and ambiguous language they inevitably ended up banning a bunch of Dr. Seuss books.

Said another way:
MAGA used *ism against The Woke.
MAGA is confused.
MAGA hurt itself in its confusion.
