Which libraries specifically, so I can avoid them of course.
Did fox really report that? I mean I would believe it because fox viewers are absolute morons but I can't tell whats satire anymore
Seems completely plausible, as part of their rhetoric to turn people against drag queen story hour.
I found the same image from April, 2024. A few articles about it from this week, but also a few here and there, including one post on 9Gag (wow, haven't heard that name in a looong time), from April 2024.
So, if it's real, it's not recent.
I was wondering how long it would take them to attack libraries. FREE books, internet access, and air conditioning?

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.
Oh my god, that's disgusting. Where?
"Don't you know the Dewey Decimal system?"

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.
That's probably why they are attaching them. Also libraries promote learning.
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.
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?
When you join your local Friends of the Library chapter, make sure you upgrade to the Friends with Benefits tier.
Just make sure you return the condom using the reusable items dropbox.
Oddly specific info maybe, but I've been expressively asked not to dump any organic matter in the dropbox.
Well, you have to rinse it first, obviously.
Damn, I need to start going to my library more often
You can rent movies and games from the library too! It's totally worth it.
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?
They absolutely do want to get rid of state and national parks, though. There's valuable minerals on some of that land, and other land that can be repurposed for grazing cattle. They're whittling it away as fast as they can already.
And Republicans just believe it because none of them have ever been to a library before
Once again, the unhinged Right's imagined Left (and Center) is infinitely more based than the reality.
But which ones specifically?

You know this isn't true because Republicans want to defund them lol
Dang: Mine just has books, music, and movies I can enjoy for free.
No homeless people jacking off to porno at your library? Must be nice.
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.
How would anyone from Fox "News" know this? They haven't been to a library since they burned the one in Alexandria down.
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.
I know critical thinking isn't something a fox news viewer has... but cmon? They can't be this stupid?
They can’t be this stupid?
You know the answer to that question.
Decades of relentless gaslighting is an immensely powerful form of brainwashing.
When it's combined with a nearly perfectly closed bubble, very few escape with their sanity and capacity for critical thinking intact.
Which ones. Are any local to me?
They've always been that. These dorks just never bothered to go to one before.
So libraries have turned in to dens of Hookers & Blow?!
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.
Wow, I'm going to the wrong library. Where is this library?
Where the fuck did I put my library card...
I don't think we're talking about love here. We are talking about S-E-X in front of the C-H-I-L-D-R-E-N!
Sex Cauldron? I thought they closed that place down!
