That latin american cookbook looks interesting.
With "voices" are they just talking about the author being one of those things? Because if that's the case, the first 3 are incredibly fucking vague as genres, and even the gay voices is extremely vague considering how many authors wer faggots.

>>21859371
Doesn't the promotion of voices from different backgrounds actually promote segregation by proxy? Not only do I know which sections to avoid now, but which shelf do you put the transgendered, 2-spirit latinx author on, and who makes the final call on that?

>>21859413
you're not supposed to think about it that deeply.
The primary objective is to harm Europeans, if logic and consistency fall by the wayside in the process then that is considered acceptable collateral damage.

Transgender I guess since I’m into sci-fi/fantasy.

First glance, a thousand splendid Suns is the only one that interests me. I liked kite runner.

>>21859441
Touch grass.

make a "4chan voices" edit please

Cancucks are the vanguard of the culture wars, anon. Reminder that this "bookstore" sells dildos

>>21859656
Oh, c’mon. You know it’s funny.

>>21859371

theres your first mistake

I like fiction; I'd have to go with the bottom shelf desu.<div class="xa23b"><span class="xa23t"></span><span class="xa23i"></span></div>

The only Hispanic I've known who wasn't viscerally offended by Latinx didn't even speak Spanish.

>>21859371
I love the idea of putting all these people together in one spot. Oh you’re looking for not-normal? You’re black and want black authors? Check the homo & etc shelves. You’re middle eastern? Look next to the tranny books.

>>21859678
its extra thick because the word “queer” is a catch-em-all term anyway.

>>21859699
>Cancucks are the vanguard of the culture wars
lmao no. everything Canada does are copied from muttland

>>21859371
I would pick up Don Quijote from the Latinx section.

>>21859590
Not an argument.

i hate americans so much

>>21859371
How the fuck is a play about the american revolution a "middle eastern voice"?

>>21859371
>Voices, apropos books
Logocentrism at its finest

>>21859371
>Which section would you choose from?
I'd start the fire at the bottom section because even if it didn't spread to the top I'd still take out the row of trans books and likely ruin the fag ones above.

Kek
Thanks for the laugh anon!

>>21859371
imagine wasting your precious reading time with works filtered by meaningless character quirks and race, things that do not contribute to the merit of the work.

Those books should go straight to my blacklist.

>>21859441
what do europeans have to do with a bookstore in America?

>>21859901
If you're a tranny, maybe.

None.

Also, LGBTQ has the number 2 now? What does the 2 stand for?

>>21859371
>LGBT section
> TALIKING TO CANADIANS

you can't write jokes like this

why do trannies get the lgbTq2+ shelf and their own shelf. Are there that many tranny authors?

>>21862140
I think they take it seriously. I’m saying it’s fucking funny. You have to pronounce it “LATINCKS”.

>>21862142
It’s a firmware update

>>21859371
Middle Easter Voices. Khaled Hosseini actually wrote some simple but interesting books. Would recommend 1000 splendid suns. Made me feel sorry for the women in Afghanistan.<div class="xa23b"><span class="xa23t"></span><span class="xa23i"></span></div>

>>21859371
Most of the great works of history were written by LGBT authors, so I’ll have to go with then.

>>21862740
The Afgans got what they wanted. If they didn't want it they would've fought back. America gave the most expensive college degrees ever. 2 trillion dollars so 1,000 women could get gender studies degrees in Kabul

Reading articles on how much people hate or reject this cringe neologism makes me smile.

Europeans = White people

>>21863733
Sure, the current generations hate it. But you need to remember, shit like this is the bread and butter of the public school system and people who make kids media like cartoons nowadays. They cant win this generation, so they'll go for the next.

>>21859371
Middle Eastern obviously

>>21859371
famed Scottish-French orphan growing up in English and Danish-controlled colonies = Latinx?

i'd go up to the bookkeeper and ask where they keep the white voices

For a while it was LGBTQIA+ and the plus was meant to stop the initialism from going even more haywire.
