I agree with your analysis of the JD Vance article! Any commentary on his run that doesn’t acknowledge that one of his heroes is the author of The Bell Curve and that he’s obsessed with “clean blood” misses the point, imo. (Also as an eighth-generation Appalachian… let’s just say my hillbilly family has some pointed critiques of JD’s memoir.)
I also LOVED possum hamlet!! Tore him out and put him on my bulletin board.
