How to use pitfall in a sentence?
I think my focus on how governments react to the [alien invasion] threat, coordinate with each other, and act towards their own population is unique, and politically-inclined readers will enjoy that aspect, additionally, so much of our mass culture has becoming overbearingly ‘woke’ to the point it detracts from the actual content.
