"harder edge" as in gleefully preoccupied with an imagined nazi paradise underground and nuclear annihilation alike?

I'm pretty sure it's meant to evoke literal nuclear annihilation to the people who fangirl over that idea, while preserving deniability for everyone else

people to volunteer their time to work on the mutual aid startup as well as her campaign, getting them involved in their community and in politics, which I think Kat views as one and the same. Her motivations are not the same as the legacy politicians' motivations, you can't use that same lens.

Welcome to the shitshow, where the most important thing is to SAY something, even if it actually means nothing and just distracts all attention from the actual thing to be talked over and learned from.

No I was thinking just the song.

Well we could easily get to the bottom of this...
