The owner of Robinsons Bookshops

But, if they did that, how could they then show the world how much of a victim they are?

Also, I'm amusing myself by using they/them pronouns for this person because I am 100% certain they'd hate it.

If they feel so fervently about this why are they stocking (and I assume selling) these books that offend them so much?

Because far-right reactionaries don't read and they'd go broke overnight.

I guess their response if you said to this to them would be that they actively are trying to do exactly as you suggest, hence the posts and with regard to the list of materials they seem to be sick of seeing, they'd probably say this is what they continue to be offered from publishers when they try to stock their shop making the task difficult.

I don't think from the posts alone there's necessarily a logical flaw or hypocrisy to what they're saying, but certainty an inflated sense of their own idea of what public opinion is and a very distorted understanding of what literature outside of the narrow confines of what they deem acceptable is for and about.

I think they maybe get some sense of how fucked up the sentences their position requires them to write sound when they have to clarify what they mean by recasting the thing they reject as something else that sounds worse, hence "inclusion" becomes "anti-white exclusion" because even they perhaps realised that it's hard to sound like the good guy preaching against hate and division when you find yourself saying you don't want any books featuring inclusion.

I'm sure it's just a coincidence that the groups they oppose are the same groups the Nazis killed.

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.

I live on the other side of the world, that just makes it even easier not to go.

I read books with anti heros, they're not great role models
