As much as I love encouraging people to engage with media that challenges them, there's much more serious things to worry about rn, even in that general field of discourse
Like, sure, rereading the same cozy novel over and over but by different authors probably isn't *great*, but nearly half of Americans have read 1 or fewer books this year, talk to them first lol

The Cato Institute, a libertarian think tank, is out with a major new research study showing that immigrants, both legal and illegal, contribute significantly more in taxes than they receive in public benefits.
