>> Just about any book you want is going to be available. This is what libraries do

There's a difference between the books that are available and the books that are on display.

I can make a request and put a hold and get a book from the stacks at the central library. That's not something the typical browser of books on a library shelf is going to do. I do it now, I never did growing up. What was on the shelves was the Overton window for me growing up. I break windows now, now I can consider any viewpoints I choose. Go get me the book from the stacks, librarian.

What librarians do today is to promote propaganda for a certain cause. It's just so self destructive of them to do that, but that's what they do.

A change is going to come.

Could you be more specific? What cause do you think they are propagandizing? How big does this conspiracy go? And when do you think it started?
