The only bookstore I've been in the past many years was in Chatham, MA. I walked in as I waiting for my wife in the store next door to see if they had any conservative books, not a one and they had a sign up to wear a mask, which I wasn;t wearing. Turned around and left. Bookstores are notoriously left wing.
A few Christmases ago I was out shopping and stopped in a bookstore. The place reeked of leftists, including the snotty staff. The clerk gave me an uppity look at the hunting book for my SIL when I checked out.. I chucked and said something like, I see you’re at the pinnacle of your career. Merry Christmas!
I only buy books online now, along with most retail goods.
