    those “Little Free Libraries” are usually virtue signalling used in racist petite bourgeois suburbs

    “The Free Little Library” was never intended to actually provide books to those who need them, but to give affluent neighborhoods a homey, quirky, intellectual, benevolent aesthetic.

    In Denver, the same neighborhoods that have them are the ones that vote to make it illegal for homeless people to exist, because they don’t like the idea of homeless people being near their homes.

    This has been an issue in Denver for YEARS, and yet the same neighborhoods that vote for these bans have SO many Free Little Libraries.

    THEY LIVE IS A DOCUMENTARY 👁️

    I bet nazis had something similar, extremely soy attempt at resolving the contradictions of class society. Literary Karens are just as disgusting as any illiterate fascists!!!

      What a specious argument. These neighborhoods also have milk in them. Does that make all neighborhoods with milk racist? These things also exist in every major city, look around.
