I just love that Rei doesn't care, I precisely read romance to escape IRL politics, so I hope she just keeps ignoring it.
Yea I'm also here for this. I understand Claire's position, she's a villain, and I understand Rei's position, she's a simp. I think it's genuinely funny (though I think we'll be seeing she's not actually ignoring it, and is trying to find a way for Claire to not get fucking beheaded)
Just remember - choosing to ignore politics is in itself a political choice.
You cannot escape.
I also agree 100%, but a forum about women holding hands prolly isn't the place to go hardcore about political science. I am finding the conversation around this part of the story fun though, all things told.
