Montana State Library Withdraws from American Library Association “The Constitution Forbids Association with an Organization Led by a Marxist”
Gateway Pundit ^ | 7-12-23 | Margaret Flavin

At least one state, Montana, has had enough of ALA’s marxist ways.

On Tuesday, a seven-member commission voted to immediately withdraw the Montana State Library from membership in the American Library Association. The commission citied ALA President Emily Drabinski’s public affirmation of her Marxist beliefs as one of the concerns with ALA.

During the meeting, commissioner Tom Burnett requested a letter be sent to the ALA clarifying that “our oath of office and resulting duty to the Constitution forbids association with an organization led by a Marxist.”

A small victory, but a good one.

I never realized how really Marxist the library industry was until just a few years ago. I always pictured it as run by sweet little old ladies who held, if not conservative, then at least moderate views.

I finally put it together when word that library branches in my large city were hot hookup spots for fags. They didn’t have anything to fear from the complicit librarians.

The only time I went into a public library in the past thirty years was to get some free flower seeds. I was yelled at twice for not wearing a mask. I put one on to go get the seeds and then took it off. I asked the “Karen” whether she was going to throw me out or just let me leave. Haha. Good memory.

ALA abandoned Cuban librarians in 2003 and left them to rot in Castro’s jails.

Public Libraries cannot have any political mission and the Library itself cannot state a political position the Library holds, or it is not a “public” Library for all the people. A public Library for all the people must itself, its infratructure and working staff, be 100% nuetral in political affairs. If it is not then is not working for “all the people”, just those it - the Library and its staff - agree with.

Drabinski, president of the ALA is another gift from unfettered immigration from Eastern European Pales
in the early 1900s. Drabinski is a proud Marxist and lesbo living with her "wife" Karen (Yes, "Karen" LOL).

I don’t know about the “inski” part, but the Drab sure fits.

Libraries in Los Angeles are mostly homeless shelters. They have access to rest rooms, running water (I've seen them wash their clothes in library sinks), a climate-controlled indoor setting, comfy chairs, and free internet.

The public libraries in Bucks County, Pa., are run by Satan himself.

I went to one that had bums who were mentally ill or on drugs. They were yelling at patrons and mumbling to themselves.

Don’t equate the ALA w/ your local library. The ALA sets standards not for porn-stations for the homeless (well, maybe) but for public schools and universities and for the methods and types of information available to them.

The stated purpose of the ALA is “to promote library service and librarianship” ... Twist leftward from there, and propaganda and censorship become the purpose of a once great organization.
