When books started being mass-produced and publicly available, there was push back against those. Readers were portrayed as detached from reality, academic snobs, losers. Even today, there are significant political pushes to ban books and defund libraries.

This shit happened to me after Hurricane Ivan (2004), nothing new here.
Had just moved here and lived in a house with 4 other guys. 3 of them stayed, or came back, after the storm. We spent 3 wonderful days bullshitting on the porch and otherwise fucking around. My gf came over and we laid on the roof and marveled at the sudden appearance of stars.
The second the power came on those dudes scattered like cockroaches, everyone straight back to their room.
