Ask yourself why does people get easily divided through means that should be obvious to them?
Why are adults fighting their own kind because of these divisive baits
Why are people ok with working their whole lives for slave salaries only to see their tax $ being spent to host migrants and give them more benefits than they have themselves
Why are adults are OK being told how to live their whole lives instead of actually be FREE
Why are humans spending their whole lives in front of their devices instead of actually living life outside the walls that protect them?
Why are humans so self centered instead of helping out their communities and people who are not as fortunate?
Why are adults believing that politicians will fight for the people and not corporations interest?
I can go on and on like this.
Bumping this post for posterity.
There should be a questionnaire like this before you go vote that way the left/right leaning aren't just spewing their rhetoric/ideology into their voting decisions but actually thinking critically about more pertinent issues that DIRECTLY affect their life.
I live just outside Chicago, Illinois. If you look at the fake numbers they project you will see that Illinois is "forever a blue state" with 8 to 1 / 7 to 1 favoring "Democrats/Kamala" but when you actually walk down the street and ask people it's actually 8 to 1 / 7 to 1 "Trump/Republican" support in CHICAGO. Go anywhere else in the entire state and it's all "Trump".
It's over for the Democrats in a state that was suppose to be "blue forever" because their policies have been so bad going back decades that the city most were raised in and loved looks like a total trash can. Unsafe. Dirty. Unrecognizable in a lot of aspects which is very sad.
People sneaking into our country(Latinos/Muslims/Asians/etc.) and being pipe-lined right to the heart of Chicago. The only reason Chicago has been able to support such a mass influx is because the city was segregated by neighborhoods forever.
Blacks live near blacks. Whites live near whites. Latinos live near latinos. Etc.
But now the poor people of Chicago(the actual US citizens) are being thrown scraps while immigrants who snuck into our country illegally get it all(Free Healthcare/Free Debit Card/Free Phone/Free Housing).
No rational person no matter how dumb you are on an IQ scale sees this and says, "This is totally normal".
You'll see those same immigrants begging for money on a corner with actual homeless veterans and other homeless people. The difference? One is begging for money because they have no one to help them. The other is begging for money because they are already getting everything free and scrounging for $10-100 a day is just "money in the bank". They don't have to learn English and everything is given to them for free. Translators. The whole 9 yards.
Yet "white people" now the minority in many respects get zero help. It's just contant bombardment of the middle class on all levels. My parents combined didn't make over 100k and were paying mine and both my sisters college tuition but yet a millionaire landscaper with the last name "Ortiz" all their kids got college for free and they got to go wherever they wanted for college because they were "hispanic/latino". Totally backwards it's a sick joke. Can go on and on like you said

edit: This is why people are so desensitized to these issues and leach to any political banter that gets them off. The result being nothing gets done and the same politicians who've enriched themselves for decades at the expense of their constituency are only now realizing they were conned on every conceivable level. People refuse to admit this to themselves so they live a lie. Much easier to lie to yourself and live in a total fantasy based delusion then actually face the harsh reality of existence itself.
