That's always been the case for TV - script writers were encouraged to write plots that a woman preparing dinner could follow along with. It's actually decreased somewhat - now we have "prestige TV" and podcasts have taken over the niche of "Give Mom's brain something to think about while doing mindless repetitive task."

Here's my home-grown definition - defense treaties like NATO also need to include some economic provisions that ensure that every aspect of wartime production is covered by at least one of the member states. It's shameful that the NATO countries together cannot produce sufficient rare earth materials to supply our collective armies. Within member states, there should be enough capability to grow sufficient food, mine sufficient materials, process sufficient materials, produce sufficient sources of energy, etc so that if NATO countries went to war with a major adversary it could do so without pagers exploding or power grids being kill-switched.

"Adversary-proof production" doesn't mean Isolated America vs the World. It would mean blocks of allies against at least one adversary. There can be market competition between allies.

Tumblr is more ideologically diverse than Reddit these days.
