You aren’t stealing the book. They’re saying m that you are stealing their charity. And their charity is part of how they perform citizenship. The branded little free libraries are very much tied to white ideas of charity, thus they come with binaries about who deserves charity.

There is someone on our local fb group who regularly insists that she sees people go into the free fridge down the block, sweep everything into a bag, then "return it for cash" at the grocery store.
She lives in a fantasy Brooklyn full of rube grocers who buy 4 wilted carrots of unknown provenance.

It cannot, and cannot be made to, take account of the environment, at the most basic systemic level.

Infinite growth is the mantra of the cancer tumor. To preserve the environment, capital must be dismantled as a matter of existential urgency.

According to mappingpoliceviolence.us, police kill at least three people per day; from a meta analysis published in NYT, we now know the number could be six or even more.
