I'm noticing a lot of people taking "you should read more about this, here are some book recommendations" as insulting their intelligence.

This is relevant because most USians lack a political education.

We had a program at our school that would give you a coupon for a free pizza every 10 or so books that you read (this was grade school so they weren't really too long, think beginners level chapter books), which worked pretty well for me. Now as a grown adult, I wish I still had a way to get free pizza.

Yep, that is it! Completely forgot the name, but I do remember that it was Pizza Hut. I'm more surprised that they're still doing it, I figured they would have killed that off by now. I want pizza now.
