Not Orwellian at all eh?
The Canadian government has ordered all books published before 2008 to be removed from government facilities, public libraries, and schools because they don't "reflect the rich diversity of our communities".
It wants books to promote diversity, transsexual justice, and gender fluidity.
Home school and horde as many old books as you can.
I have a high school friend who works in a library. I sent her this article and how I thought it was interesting:
https://larrysanger.org/2024/09/a-trip-to-the-library/
She then went on to immediately claim it wasn't interesting, but "uninformed" and how it was a "boomers take on going to a library."
I informed her that "boomer" was one of the two people who literally founded Wikipedia.
She's one of those people who said parents complained because they put out pronoun pins .. in the children's section. I was like, "Yes. That's good. They fucking should!" ... she also thought hormones make up for the difference in athletics when trans play in womens' sports. She's obese and never played sports.
This is in the deep south. This is the state of the American library worker.

Also FUCK whoever came up with the notion that libraries are "community centers" and therefore it's fine and dandy for them to be taken over by stank ass homeless bums.
@caekislove @djsumdog I fucking hate that shit man. I used to go the one down the street from me because they have a whole manga shelf but its impossible now.
The smell man is awful
that and the creeps looking at porno on the computer

@ins0mniak @caekislove @djsumdog I'm fortunate in that my local library keeps the bums in line and will kick them out if they're nasty. Not all libraries are so lucky. I remember the Charlotte NC library being so bad that the restroom stalls are only 1/2 height so people can more easily report drug ODs from bums shooting up in the shitters.
You cant use the bathroom at mine because they use it to bath and such.
You know those koala care things for changing babies? They use them as shelves to toss their big stupid bags on so they're always busted and hanging off bent screws.
Like StarBucks locks the damn bathroom which the library needs to do
