It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow chapos. Wreckers/CHUDs are allowed. If they aren't banned yet then report them, don't post them.

"little free libraries" are a pernicious, individualist perversion of Public Libraries. They should all be vandalized for daring to associate themselves with such a venerable institution.
Who erects these things? People who own freestanding/duplex homes on leafy residential urban streets. Who wish to make a permanent display out of how nice they are. Yet in a way that centers themselves with no accountability in sight.
This lady sounds fucked. However as far as I can tell she is in accordance with the conceit of these things.
Try doing this at an actual Public Library and feel the Wrath of the Librarians.
Lol who pays you man shut the fuck up. This is nothing. Literally no argument just grade school poetry. You're not going to be famous.
Happy eleventh day on this site tho
You must be fun at parties.
God forbid anyone would put something out that says "we are a community, here is something we can share together"
Do you go around stomping community gardens too?
I'm not "stomping" on anything. But. If people who were rich enough to have lawns in cities started turning their lawns into "community gardens" where only their rich friends could do stuff, but pretending that it was open to everyone, then started erecting monuments to their own generosity. Then I wouldn't shame anyone for stomping those gardens.
I guess I just don't think rich people who own the nicest properties in town should be the ones to dictate what gets shared and with whom.
I don't know what your deal is. Our little free library is in our neighborhood public park next to our community garden, in the same PUBLIC PARK.
I don't live in the suburbs so I don't know what to tell you
That's a moronic way to look at the world and will get you nowhere. Period.
Isnt this literally the "WHY ARE THEY DOING THIS WITH NO PROFIT INCENTIVE" meme
Do you think little libraries are only seen in rich suburbs? I think they're just as common in middle class neighborhoods as well as in front of public schools, public parks, churches, and the start of hiking trails. Also, nobody's preventing poor people from taking a book, it's quite literally open to everyone
You know those little libraries allow you to also place books in it rather than just take. Fill it with communist and anarchist literature.
Just like the lady in the OP fills it with bible stuff.
What is this post even about
The library isn't the be all and end all of information dissemination. Are libraries good places that should be protected? Yes. Can they also be co-opted and engage in censorship and exclusion? Yes.
Lmao did you get so mad at libraries you forgot where you are
We have one in our neighborhood park that people maintain on their free time. You seem angry and I don't think it's about little free libraries, so what are you actually angry about?
what does
mean
If you're going to dodge the question, why bother responding at all
