I'd like to play my uninformed conspiracy theory card. Some people are making bank off this trash, and Lionsgate is just a vehicle they wrecked along the way.

If I know ONE THING, it's that fuck do I really have to do this. If I'm getting paid per post, I want to know what is the lady's head doing in the blob thing
You are not criticizing the OP, I guess, because you acknowledge their point, that it was meaningless, but it was entertaining to distract the Stasi. But you are criticizing the OP, because you think the Stasi were so competent?
It's a slippery slope. There's no sense or consistency to allowing books of religion but not books of philosophy, which are also often not credible. Some new age manosphere grifter would love to get their trash into jail. Or whatever's going as the Celestine Prophecy or the Secret these days. Or The Game, lol
Since they're westerners there at the jail in Kentucky, I'd like some David Hume or John Locke. Kant is good, requires a lot of focus, might get you twisted up with anxiety, Marx or Hegel if you're even more masochistic. it would be amazing to sneak in some 20th century Spanish antifascist text, but that might turn out to be anachronistic. I'd say you need a dictionary for much of this, but same with the bible.

Fair enough
For such a short article, wow. Some notes, because I haven't looked up any of this
A person or entity from Canada named Alimentation Couche-Tard runs Circle-k, which does some stuff in Europe
A Japanese billionaire was in charge of bringing 7-11 back from the 90s
It's CNN business, so they don't cover the shittyness of 7-11, speedway or circle-k. It's fucking terrible when that type of place is your only option even in an urban area, to buy nutritious food or supplies. It's a step up from those shitholes to dollar ex or whatever, which is also going to be awful
Also they're all great places to buy illegal drugs, but speedway really sucked the life out of many communities when they bought superamerica (whoever the fuck owned that) /s kinda
Is that expression literally in the article? I don't know because I hit a huge consent box when I clicked on it, and i just backed out.
FOSS in general ... and FOSS social media ... is a leftist answer to capitalist social media ....
This is how you can tell me you're a troll and know nothing of the history of personal computing.

Edit: not sure if you were sarcastic or not, based on other comments. Either my instance or my mobile browser makes it hard to see everything in a coherent way.
Yeah this is absurd.
You described Lorena Bobbitt more or less. Ashli Babbitt was a Jan 6 rioter (at the u.s. capitol) shot by police.
Fuck this timeline.
Cops going around and asking about purple rocks would cause a tiny stir. A kid would be aware of that and entertained. This is pre- internet and It's Soviet culture. I'm not supporting the Soviets, but people talked to each other, which is generically quite positive.
