Judge Dread on Nostr: I have a truly primordial libertarian book that included a whole chapter opposing ...
I have a truly primordial libertarian book that included a whole chapter opposing taxpayer funded libraries and everything it predicted turned out to be true. No flowering of intellectual achievement resulted from universal access to thousands of classic texts in every medium size city. 99% of citizens made no use of library resources too learn unless coerced by public education. People at best were able to read pulp fiction and crappy romance novels for free.
It did, however, fail to anticipate homeless guys masturbating to internet videos.
Based on the public library precedent what happened to the internet when it became universal with the advent of the moron enabling device (the excruciatingly ironically named smartphone) came as no surprise.
