At the library in the political section.

Half the books are “How Democracy Dies” or some such title by Jacob Levinstein or thereabouts. “The Rise of American Fascism” by Noah Leibovitz.

Good stuff.

If you check the free books, libraries have been purging the bad thought for a while.

Pretty sure trying to use coercion like the fricking mafia to get people vaccinated from unelected officials is how democracy dies.

Read the Madness of Crowds last year. Pretty insightful.

Just got this in the mail today…my beach book…1984 edition, if that only slightly makes it political.

I’m going to read Shogun on vacation this year.

I actually enjoyed the Great Reset by Beck. But I’m not sure if you’re looking for something a little brainier.

I like science fiction and some horror every now and then. I like music biographies and humor sometimes as well.

I haven't done anything of that in a while.

I've done war, environmental alarmism, and critical thinking books.

Does it matter? GenZ and Alpha probably only know Libraries as places to get free Wi-Fi, they probably don't even realize the used to house antique books.

You can’t unsee it. Klaus Schwab is the devil incarnate. Climate Change is his weapon of choice.

Evil sneaks up on you. It fools you into thinking it’s for your own good.
