Piracy is good and you should do more of it. Use https://9anime.to/ and https://4anime.to/ for streaming, and https://nyaa.si/ for torrents. Piracy is the only means of digital protest that audiences have to fight poor worker treatment.

Which one?
Main girl Rae of course.
The politics seem to start around chapter 16 and while I don't love the "rioting commoners were part of a shadowy plot" beat, the overall structure of how the magic system affects the material conditions is interesting.
Oh lol I see I had misunderstood what you had said. I think it felt more like the shadowy plot taking advantage of public anger to me which is why I felt like it works, since the agency is still with the populace at large. I'm glad you think it's interesting though!
It's a somewhat common trope to have a particular character behind a riot, because it gives the main character someone to face off against and talk to, but I think it misrepresents how riots actually form and function, and tends to resemble right wing "outside agitator" narratives.
Yeah no that's completely fair, it's been like a year since I've read the story so I could totally be off-kilter, I think your issues are pretty valid
