I stand with Palestine, and the rare spaces our public can spend time and educate themselves. Genocide is depressing. Hurting books makes me sad.

PS: we appreciate the smartass answers as well for much-needed comic relief
I appreciate the spirit, but people who read books are probably the wrong demographic to aim this kind of messaging at.
And vandalizing the libraries is just vandalizing the happy place for the people who already agree with you.
Or, in shorter terms: “Just being an asshole”
They might not have been the smartest protesters out there
Can rocks or doornails protest
If so that’s still a maybe
They have their heart in the right place, even if their brains are not
How do we know this isn’t a false flag from the far right to make it seem us against the genocide look bad?
Could be, but I don’t think it really matters honestly. The message is still righteous, the books are still readable, no one was hurt. So it’s whatever.
