Democracy pillows: full of rocks put there by people who were told by Fox News that rocks make the best pillow-stuffing. Stitching falling apart because thread money was re-purposed to provide more tax cuts for billionaires and large corporations. But democracy pillows are the best pillows imaginable, better than all the other pillows that have from time to time been tried. So who cares if they're unfit for purpose? We've been told they're the best and that's all there is to it. No thinking required. And Uncle Joe has made them even better by smearing butter over the very top! Life will be rosy from here on out.
