Fucking hell they really do hate any kind of Other don’t they
I’m sure it’s just a coincidence that the groups they oppose are the same groups the Nazis killed.
Something to keep in mind next time you’re thinking of supporting a local book seller. Luckily there’s other options around.
American here. This really makes me think twice before supporting a local business. Its not really something i have thought of or considered before. Independant book stores tend to be more liberal. But i see otherwise here. Wow.
There was an independent coffee roaster I used to buy from that started referring to the pandemic as a “plandemic” then included graphic religious propaganda with their orders.
And small businesses are sometimes worse in terms of wage theft and ignoring labour laws, probably because they think they are small enough that nobody will notice.
But it’s a case by case basis, of course.
Craziness comes in all shapes and forms, I’m surprised as well; As you’re right that bookstores generally do seem more progressively minded.
I’d feel confident in saying many others are completely fine to shop at.
Who would have thought that learning leads to a more progressive outlook on life?
I used to order pizza from a small local business until I went there in person and all 3 TVs in the place had Newsmax at full volume. Last time I went there.
Why would one example, not even from your country, make you think twice? Get a grip.
The thing I love about books are that they are machines for empathy.
You get to inhabit the lives of other people, see through their eyes and hear their thoughts.
It’s an out of one body and into another body experience.
During my life I have been a pirate, a clown, a cyborg, and alien…I have been male and female and something that was neither or both.
The last thing, given the choice, I want to read about is myself. I already know that story.
I wish I lived in Melbourne so I could not go to that bookshop.
I live on the other side of the world, that just makes it even easier not to go.
We need more positive male lead characters?
Has this person actually read any books?
I read books with anti heros, they’re not great role models
Doesn’t support things that divide people and make Australians hate each other. Accuses people of having a “woke agenda”.
So basically doesn’t want to stock any book that might challenge and develop her opinions and beliefs. Is she removing religious books as well? I like to read stuff that I disagree with, that’s how we learn
It’s made the mainstream press, so looks like she’s doing a good job of trashing her brand…
Lol. Thats cute. Because what happens in one country… Could never happen in another? Expand your thoughts.
