Your post was about how much you enjoyed your experience there and how they had a wide variety of leftist literature.
Followed up with the brick wall of capitalism hitting you in the face, oh it's actually literally the one you've shopped at.
It's brutally sad for everyone involved. The workers who are being fucked, the people who shop at Half Price, and the authors whose works are sold there. It's a bad deal for everyone involved when a company can't pay it's workers properly, and will result in a slow degradation of the quality of Half Price Books until it becomes a full on shell of it's former self and is sold to private equity who will squeeze out every last cent of value for themselves.
Brutal.
What does "brutal" mean in this context?

I see, you're absolutely right about that, beautifully said.
