Or do bookstores only stock right wing books? The most "left" book I can find at this Books A Million is the latest from Bernie Sanders 🙃

For my job I find myself going inside conservative homes several times each weekday. They almost never have any books inside them at all. The only books you are likely to find are the fucking bible. I don’t know who the fuck is buying these books (money launderers) or where they are going (probably straight into landfills). But I do know as a communist writer that it’s very difficult to sell books.
Edit: liberals will occasionally have terrible novels in their homes. Certainly less than five percent of the houses I’ve entered have large amounts of books which appear to have been read.
A fair number of them make a stop at the thrift stores first, I guess to make finding the good books more laborious
