Me: eheheh I’m gonna write an au of my silly spies and stuff stories that’s gonna be steeped in the politics I grew up in because it’s personal to me to write about how usamericans entrenched in post-9/11 nationalism can learn and grow and be better the way I had to after growing up in a conservative nationalist household

Me: oh hey some folk are reading this including one I look up to what’s they got to say -

Readers: I don’t trust Character he’s got bad vibes
