Difficult when they're on every corner.
Graeber's a brilliant paleontologist and an easy read. The world is worse for his passing. But he's not remotely as influential as your average Silicon Valley anti-government billionaire.
Pappe clearly isn't being listened to on Gaza. And Chompsky was the fucking "Vote Joe Biden for harm reduction" guy. Not exactly a revolutionary.
I have a hard time finding a B&N still open. Nevermind the boutique leftist libraries.
I totally understand if you don't want to give any information related to where you could be located, but can you actually provide an example? I'm genuinely curious because other than the christian book stores I've been to in the midwest and deep south, when visiting family or on vacation, I've never actually seen a conservative bookstore, much less a libertarian one, granted that was a joke. I mean, other than leftist shops, I usually see neoliberal "4 hour workweek" drivel, but beyond that I've rarely come across libertarian books except for Rand's or the collective works of Adam Smith, who was more of a Liberal. Nothing like "For a New Liberty" by Rothbard.
I mean, I don't disagree that he is too liberal, and less revolutionary that I'd like, I mentioned him because of the relevance of "On Palestine," and the fact he and Graeber are influential to me in how I got to Anarchism.
I have the opposite experience, but I guess that's just geographic positioning.
