Bots are largely a nuisance to the communities they're in; I would advise against making one.

I've been rated between 1200-1300 for 5 years now with no indication of any upward trend despite hiring a chess coach and studying. There's just no helping some of us!

Yup. They're not selling eBooks, they're leasing licenses to eBooks. Vastly different.

Could be a good thing or a bad thing for you; Witch King is very, very different from the Murderbot series. I see a lot of people liking one and hating the other (in both directions), and not a lot of people liking both.

My advice would be to have your expectations set like it was a completely different author.

Most leftist voters around me knew that a vote for Harris or Trump was a vote for genocide, but I don't think anyone but the truly gullible thought that a vote for Trump was a vote against genocide. Most voted for Harris as a means of harm reduction, especially considering that Harris could probably be pressured out of genocide if we made a big enough stink.

The whole "Genocide Joe" trope reminds me a lot of the "Bernie Bro's" trope of 2016; a largely manufactured division of leftist and liberal voters to promote infighting.

You should absolutely be treating the US government as a hostile entity. Many Americans are also treating it as such, and are organizing emergency preparations (mainly go-bags) for things like martial law, civil war, and being targeted as a result of belonging to a prohibited minority group. You should take the US government's threats seriously. We are.

Transgender Americans and other minority groups are feeling it for sure. It's just not the white suburban traditional family Americans who have felt the pinch yet (aside from the price of eggs).

I hope with time we can prove to you that there's Americans here fighting against this. I know it doesn't look great now, and don't blame you for hating us and our country. As an American, I also hate us and our country.

I know Europeans hate us Americans and I understand why. I've never supported Trump and have fought with my dollar, vote, and time, but I am just too ashamed to show my face in the EU any time soon.
