    Yes they do just buy them for decoration. If you are intellectually curious you're in an extreme minority of people.

      Which I find strange. Usually anti-intellectualism is open, up-front, and honest about what it is. People buying books and not reading them just to pretend they're smart doesn't seem like a thing that actually happens in real life, just a straw intellectual the willfully ignorant like to beat up.
