Libraries are another example of a purely Socialist concept that is woven into our "Democratic" society, so this is their chance to demonize libraries in their defamation of Socialism before the Midterms. Museums are next.

When they do that, remind them that nothing is more Socialist than the Fire Department, which was originally a private operation, until the citizens made it a socialist municipal mainstay. Do they want to get rid of the Fire Department, just because it is Socialist? How about public parks? How about State or National Parks?

If whoever is writing the lower thirds for FOX had ever been to a library themselves, they might know that the comma there is totally incorrect...

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 2 points 1 hour ago

It's limited, so you have to sign up in advance.

[–] MilitantAtheist@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago

Where the fuck did I put my library card...

[–] Kintarian@lemmy.world 5 points 3 hours ago

Wow, I'm going to the wrong library. Where is this library?

[–] Malyca@lemmy.zip 8 points 4 hours ago

Now they come for libraries, the last source of true information. Once those are gone, history is what they say and reality is what they say.

NOTE: You still have to be very quiet, so don't forget the ball gag.

My balls did not consent to being used as a gag

[–] Squirrelanna@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 3 hours ago

That's just common courtesy!

[–] Ramsesder13te@feddit.org 3 points 4 hours ago

I am only am realising now that "the 7" was probably also parodying "the 5”.

[–] VampirePenguin@lemmy.world 3 points 4 hours ago

If only that were true. sigh

[–] Caketaco@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 5 hours ago

Sign me up! lol. I can’t get an erection. I’ve been to my local library a few times, and they have little rooms you can rent for private meetings and whatnot. Definitely heard a couple fuck in one of those, once.

[–] chunes@lemmy.world 24 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

The reason fox news is able to make wild claims about libraries is because its viewers haven't stepped foot in a library since they were in elementary school.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 2 points 1 hour ago

Wait until they find out you can do early voting at the Library.

[–] baggachipz@sh.itjust.works 33 points 10 hours ago (3 children)

I was wondering how long it would take them to attack libraries. FREE books, internet access, and air conditioning?

[–] Malyca@lemmy.zip 3 points 4 hours ago

More specifically, true information is communism. Don't you know history is what the white man says it is? Google has already updated their search results to reflect revisionist history. Once the libraries are gone, that's it.

[–] Tiral@lemmy.world 2 points 4 hours ago

Wait, now you can use Libby and borrow books from libraries within hundreds of miles or you....for free? Better end that shit we don't want people learning anything. Statistically the higher your education level the more likely you are to be a Democrat atheist.

[–] Ramsesder13te@feddit.org 1 points 4 hours ago

Free and uncensored education? Don't you realise that's literally...

[–] lizzzy@feddit.uk 9 points 8 hours ago

Which ones. Are any local to me?

[–] AdolfSchmitler@lemmy.world 11 points 10 hours ago

And Republicans just believe it because none of them have ever been to a library before

[–] tabarnaski@sh.itjust.works 9 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Step 1 of the plan to close all public libraries in the US.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 1 points 1 hour ago

Think of the money they can save, and give tax cuts to the Sociopathic Oligarchs. No sense wasting knowledge on people who are only going to die in slave labor camps anyway.

[–] SourDragon@lemmy.world 18 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Damn, I need to start going to my library more often

[–] rethnor@lemmy.zip 7 points 10 hours ago (2 children)

You can rent movies and games from the library too! It's totally worth it.

[–] CADmonkey@lemmy.world 3 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

My local library rents specialty tools/pans for baking!

[–] Cracks_InTheWalls@sh.itjust.works 3 points 10 hours ago* (last edited 10 hours ago)

And if you can't physically get there as often as you'd like, most have a great collection of digital resources for ebooks, newspapers, film, etc. etc. that are pretty awesome.

Use ALL of what the library has to offer!

[–] melsaskca@lemmy.ca 17 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Libraries are the last sanctuary for the poor and the lost. It used to be the churches. Save all libraries everywhere and build way more.

[–] rethnor@lemmy.zip 8 points 10 hours ago

That's probably why they are attaching them. Also libraries promote learning.

[–] Bakkoda@lemmy.world 13 points 13 hours ago

You know this isn't true because Republicans want to defund them lol

[–] _haha_oh_wow_@piefed.social 12 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

Dang: Mine just has books, music, and movies I can enjoy for free.

[–] FudgyMcTubbs@lemmy.world 4 points 13 hours ago (2 children)

No homeless people jacking off to porno at your library? Must be nice.

[–] PattyMcB@lemmy.world 2 points 9 hours ago
[–] DisasterTransport@startrek.website 4 points 12 hours ago* (last edited 12 hours ago)

damn perhaps we should do something about the underlying socioeconomic problems that cause homelessness and antisocial behavior. No? just shuffle them around some more? oh, okay.

So libraries have turned in to dens of Hookers & Blow?!

[–] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 4 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Just the Presidential library.

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 2 points 4 hours ago

Say what you will about the Trump library, its kids' section is unparalleled.

[–] just2look@lemmy.zip 59 points 21 hours ago* (last edited 21 hours ago)

Which libraries specifically? So I can avoid them of course.

[–] davetortoise@reddthat.com 19 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

The table legs make it look like the central guy has giant legs

Did fox really report that? I mean I would belive it because fox viewers are absolute morons but I can't tell whats satire anymore

[–] wonderingwanderer@sopuli.xyz 2 points 9 hours ago

They're acting like they're so concerned for the integrity of public libraries, but this is transparently an attempt to manufacture consent to defund public libraries.

It's so obvious if you pay any attention at all, they've been telegraphing this for months if not years...

Is that like a "library plus" subscription? Or do I just go to the counter with my card and ask for a drug fueled orgy?

I've been to some libraries where it's for whatever reason full of people either drunk or high causing a ruckus. Then they sometimes fight, leave needles and stuff behind and yell at random people. The library has hired/asked the mall to get more security, but the library has already got a reputation and people have started avoiding it. It sucks, there's very few nice, calm and quiet community places around.

The situation improved this summer since the drunk or high people spend more time outside but now the close by park has been dug up, so they're back to the library.
