      One advantage of AmeriKKKa's democracy simulation has always been that Dems and GOP can play a good cop - bad cop routine when it comes to NATO. Trump (and Dubya before him) does a unilateralism to bully Europe into more military spending, then Biden (and Obama before him) comes into office and reassures the countries that have just gutted their welfare and education systems a bit further to field another anti aircraft brigade that the benevolent hegemon in D.C. will ofc always have their back and that it will pay off for them to remain loyal vassals.

    Damn I need to finish my novel. I have this dream that every time Rowling enters the news cycle, I advertise my magic college as the non-TERF option. I then make $1000, send 95% to charity, get some Indian takeout, and feel smug in having disseminated some commie propaganda.

    "I'm so sorry #harrypotter ! 😔 It's rough when Voldemort's forces are taking over. Just like it's rough being persecuted for being #trans by power demagogues. If you want to still experience magic in a world where hate doesn't win, you should check out my novel!"
