    Dems, Rebubs as individuals aren’t really anything other than drones that follow orders on what to think and what to get angry about. It’s a systemic issue where money is injected into the fringes to piss the other side off and force a defensive posture and eventually conflict from fear.

    Every idea that categorizes into left/right needs to be challenged at this point.
    The left will never prevail
    The right will never prevail

    We must recognize and respond to what is really happening.

      Both the left and right 100% worship at the altar of capitalism. What the people want doesnt factor into much except the votes every 2-4 years, which are heavily steered and give us little real democratic control of our future. Capitalism maximizes profits and couldnt care less whats good for society.

      I’m not saying the left and the right are the same, but they work for the same bosses, and thats the rich, not us. You and I only really exist as abstract concepts to them, not as fellow humans. Our carefully curated votes are a means to an end, and that end is not whats good for the people of the country.

      Once our votes are removed as trump said he’d do, we serve little real purpose to them. Why incentivize your workforce when you can make them live in fear and pay them less?
