“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!!!

    Yeah there's like 3 within 2 blocks of George Floyd Square in Minneapolis. It's not a well designed social program or even real mutual aid, but it's a place to put free books. Honestly it's the kind of thing leftists without a left complain about because we know we should be filling them with agitprop, but Twitter is easier.
