And Republicans just believe it because none of them have ever been to a library before
I was wondering how long it would take them to attack libraries. FREE books, internet access, and air conditioning?
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.
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.
You know this isn't true because Republicans want to defund them lol
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.
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.
It is!
Finally the anime’s were true!
Once again, the US is having all of the fun, when we just have plain boring old libraries with books and magazines.
So libraries have turned in to dens of Hookers & Blow?!
Just the Presidential library.
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.
Yeah I've seen a library that manages to mediate between its homeless polulation and other patrons, but i could see fox news trying to gin up a moral panoc about libraries rather than have compassion for the homeless.
Once again, the unhinged Right's imagined Left (and Center) is infinitely more based than the reality.
The table legs make it look like the central guy has giant legs
Jesse the haunted puppet definitely has tiny little stick legs hidden behind those table legs
But which ones specifically?
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.
Which libraries specifically? So I can avoid them of course.
Oh my god, that's disgusting. Where?
"Don't you know the Dewey Decimal system?"
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
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.
Seems completely plausible, as part of their rhetoric to turn people against drag queen story hour.
i hate that comma, placement
It is as accurate as the rest of what is on screen.
This sounds fucking rad
fox once again imagining a much more based world to get mad about
what bloody libraries are they going to? I want in!
watters in the middle, and DRUNK lawyer on the left.
I went into my local library high and naked, but they just asked me nicely to leave. :(
And they call me a nerd
Where would one find one of those appalling dens of iniquity? So one can avoid it, of course.
Sex dens, sure, no duh. But DRUG INFESTED?!
Sssshhhh!!!
Nope. Love libraries with all my being. Love all
Sex in the stacks.
