Any -book Internet related word usually denotes that it’s happening on Facebook, I think. So leftbook is leftists on Facebook?
Oh I thought like a leftist book club
That sounds newspeak-y.
What word would 'left-book' be replacing?
Double-plus-good isn't used because it's a new word. It's used because they can't use "brilliant", "excellent", "fantastic", etc...
Are there book clubs for right wingers? Can they read? Fascinating.
well given all the politicians release books bragging about themselves and they do make sales I assume there are some buyers who want to do more than show them off
(also ik you're joking but a lot of otherwise very smart people do end up right wing for inane reasons)
