I fucking hate these worthless animals so much, and I hate national libraries just as much, these subhuman dogs are holding hostages millions of books in their shelves which they either refuse to digitalize or refuse to make available to the public in any reasonnable manner and I swear they're colluding with copyrights owners who every 10-20 years or so influence the government to vote new draconian copyright laws for books that nobody has read in 60+ years, and to ensure that even books and magazines 80+ years old are still under copyright laws despite these faggots having 0% chance of making a profit off them in 2021. I order a duplication of some article in a Japanese magazine of the 1930s (because tee hee they refuse to let me have to through interlibrary loan and won't let me read it online) and they ask me to pay for it by FAXING them my credit card information?

and the best part is there's absolutely nothing I can do about it,
