There's no good commentary on "Kevin Can F Himself".
All the substacks and youtube think pieces just describe the show.
Maybe that's the fate of a good deconstruction, no one knows what else to say.

The conservative answer to "men aren't reading".
Anecdotally, I've found that people who discover and read the "great books" in college tend liberal, but people who discover and read them after college tend conservative.

Just read Never Let Me Go.
One funny thought I had while reading this is that I knew the genre and I knew the authors reputation, so I knew what to expect.
