More than 50 people stood outside the Enoch Pratt Library’s Southeast Anchor branch on a recent spring morning in Baltimore. Parents with small children, teenagers, and senior citizens clustered outside the door and waited to hear their ticket numbers called.

They weren’t there for books—at least, not at that moment. They came to shop for groceries.

Connected to the library, the brightly painted market space is small but doesn’t feel cramped. Massive windows drench it in sunshine. In a previous life, it was a café. Now, shelves, tables, counters, and a refrigerator are spread out across the room, holding a mix of produce and shelf-stable goods.

    So you’re still just arguing about what’s best for you in the moment.

    Say you succeeded with this plan, all the rich conservatives are dead, and all their wealth has been distributed to feed those who are in need. Who are you going to kill and eat next?

      Arguing for what’s best for humanity long term…

      all their wealth has been distributed to feed those who are in need. Who are you going to kill and eat next?

      No one. This isn’t the fascism that always needs an enemy to hate on

        “We’re gonna round up and kill all the undesirables, but it’s not fascism when WE do it”

        Okay buddy.
