I mean... pretty sure that's satire. The last sentence has "why waste time say lot word when few do trick" energy.

Review trolling is a subtle art that should be financed with government grants.

[–] Ilovethebomb@sh.itjust.works 15 points 5 days ago (3 children)

The majority of users on this platform just don't recognise satire until someone points it out.

[–] athatet@lemmy.zip 14 points 5 days ago (1 children)

It’s because there are people who actually hold this opinion.

Or sarcasm.

[–] Rusty@lemmy.ca 4 points 5 days ago

Are you trying to tell us that there are a lot of neurodivergent people on lemmy?

Sure, but back when I was on Meta, there were plenty of people that typed like this.

Has to be satire

[–] Buffy@libretechni.ca 34 points 5 days ago (1 children)

It might be satire but this is definitely a reflection of the truth for many. Take this as a sign to support your public library, they shouldn't be taken for granted.

review trolling -_- not gonna bait me.

she ain't no masterbaiter

[–] DeathByBigSad@sh.itjust.works 17 points 4 days ago (2 children)

A library is a place you go when you are a rebellious teenager and your parents didn't want you to have a computer (or maybe you had one but you being a dumb kid broke it), so you went there to get away from parents and use the library computer.

(Yes I went to the library just to play some browser based Unity FPS game, cuz my laptop stopped working, that's me "playing outside" lol)

(Also if your parents are poor and can't afford a computer or internet access)

Also if you hate a teacher and wanted to skip class. (Okay kids please don't skip class, I was depressed and hated that class okay)

This cunt is allowed to vote. Just think about that for a little while.

Might also be a troll review, but Poe's Law is in full effect now a days and there's people who legitimately think like this.

[–] vidi_vici_veni@lemmy.zip 8 points 4 days ago

I fully agree with this comment. It is not only libraries, but the entire publishing ecosystem that needs to change:

  1. Governments could host public servers for books, allowing everyone to download and read them freely.
  2. Authors should also be free to upload their own books and be compensated through tax funding, based on actual downloads or verified readership.
  3. Ideally, this would be supported by dedicated softwareβ€”or even specialized reading devicesβ€”that can measure readership more accurately.
  4. For scientific and technical books, some form of professional review or certification could be used to increase their weight in the system, while purely entertainment content could be weighted less.
  5. Countries that share the same language could collaborate by pooling their book servers, creating shared linguistic knowledge spaces and reducing duplication of infrastructure.

Oh wow, I'm so used to reading MAGA comments I had to re-read it to notice all the errors.

It's satire, but Americans as dumb and ignorant as her portrayal exist and are numerous. They just wouldn't even step into a library, lol.

This reads like a Trump tweet.

[–] ShamanRonin@lemmy.world 6 points 4 days ago

Ah. Katy, Texas I presume. Anyway, this is so aggressively American. We’re fucked.

Satire or not.

I am thinking that maybe this is a sarcasm? A little jokey joke perhaps?

[–] Asidonhopo@lemmy.world 10 points 5 days ago (2 children)

I know it's a joke but that pic is on point. Proud grandmother of 25

Libraries also provide help when filing taxes.
Even if that internet thing was a argument.

[–] echodot@feddit.uk 3 points 4 days ago (2 children)

I just find it amazing that in the US you have to file your own taxes. It seems purposefully stupid.

Surely you could just lie, so obviously they have to calculate the taxes themselves so why do they have you do it the first time?

[–] Jankatarch@lemmy.world 3 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

There are private companies that calculate your taxes for you at a fee.

They then lobby the government to keep the system as is.

There is an actual zero percentage chance this is real.

[–] shalafi@lemmy.world 9 points 5 days ago

Can't say which is funnier, the joke or the people taking it seriously.

[–] Lumisal@lemmy.world 4 points 5 days ago

I've known someone who spoke like that in real life unfortunately. She might have had about the same literacy levels and opinions.

I wish it was 0% but it's at least 20%.

Why not higher? They couldn't really use a phone either, and this person somehow does.

Totally missed out on using β€œcould of” near the end there.

[–] bearboiblake@pawb.social 4 points 4 days ago

My guess would be that this is someone with severe dyslexia, maybe without even knowing they have it

[–] Shamber@lemmy.world 5 points 4 days ago

The level of English language this review is written in, is enough evidence as to why we actually need those libraries...we're fucken doomed...and seriously fuck the Internet

Auto correct had a difficult task to complete to make it somewhat understandable.

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 4 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

Of course she's upset. All they had were books and she can't read!
