Well stated. Since I retired, I got back into reading more and more. Something to the tune of 120 books since 2016. Read so much while working, did not take time to expand my brain. I will join you with a book. If you read my posts today, it will confirm what you are saying about how the MSM and social feeds are being used against us. Flood the zone with s..t is what those that seek to tear down democracy works. The social media universe is a perfect vehicle to do what they do and it is also the perfect example of how unregulated (libertarian) capitalism is dangerous for society.

As a retired academic librarian and 86, I applaud your reading of more books. I also receive the wise words of Phillip Gulley, a Quaker pastor in Indiana.

I love cats and Mysteries. 🐈‍⬛🐈

I am also a retired librarian, high school and I have always been a reader. And while we no longer have a cat, we do read lots of mysteries.

It's the firehose strategy.

Ah yes, libertarian capitalism, in which the only acceptable objective is quarterly profit for the few, where there are no citizens, only consumers in search of new things to consume…in which soon the capital itself is consumed, leaving only a wasteland.
