Thanks for the extra context. I remember the government book banning and destruction last year. Is this just bookshops continuing the trend then or a government backed thing?

Seems to be kind of an ongoing public-private thing where everyone just seems to be going "oh boy I sure do love destroying books!" Whether it's coordinated or not, it seems to be a major trend.

Book stores selling more books by offering a discount, people wanting to use that discount instead of waiting for the government to just make the destruction of those books mandatory and thus ineligible for a discount, government stripping libraries bare.

Not a good sign.
