Libraries are not a whole society.
They are funded by property taxes, harvested under capitalism, and beholden to a web of reactionary shitlib beaurocracy.

What is your understanding of communism?
Socialized civil services aren't communism. Communism is more like worker ownership of the means of production. Typically here it's used to signify the potential end stage of socialist building, a "stateless moneyless society".
Libraries are cool, but they're not communism.
I'm not arguing against masks. You're using me to let off steam from frustration in your actual life.
I get an extra $5 if you use "showing your ass" or "I hope you catch COVID and die" in the reply btw
$10 says you don't have anything approaching this energy for people in real life, who actually pose a danger to you.
You will never meet anyone here in real life.
I hope this is cathartic, though.
In the U$, yeah it'd be in the top 3.
That's super fucking sad
It's basically not a thing in my area, so I feel like it's a constant social struggle. I mostly don't, now. I will to the grocery store, or to places the people I live with won't be. I don't feel like my actions are meaningful, if I'm going to be exposed to their germs from school either way. I would traveling, though.
I'm weaker than I'd like to be.
The Monk and Robot series by Becky Chambers is really good. Her Wayfarers series flirts a bit with describing anarchist-ish and collectivist space society, especially in Galaxy and the Ground Within. She's a good read all around.
