There's a large portion of America that wants to disenfranchise the other side. There are people on the left who want to completely silence the right and vice versa. Until the electorate can coexist with others who have differing viewpoints, we're going to continue having a polarized government.

Government and media are hoof in hoof. Take a look at all the major networks, and who they employ who previously worked in the government. Look at who's in the government right now who previously worked in the media.

It's not the "people" who are the enemy of the "governement". Instead, it's those who're in power or expect one day to be in power again who stoke divisions and disenfranchisement. The level of "unpersoning" that is being seen is unprecedented in America since the Civil War. And it's primarily driven by one side. This was not the case 2016-2020. All the "unpersoning" was still left against right, with the left running defense for black bloc communists and racial rioters.

Let's not split hairs here, the right just wants to sit down and talk about ideas. The left wants to see the right eradicated and/or expelled from society, and openly refers to them as vermin. And hilariously, those who were previously "of the left" are now considered not merely right, but far right, no matter how liberal their views.

It's typical fascist/communist revolution in action. We'll see if it's halted, or if the United States as we've known it for centuries ceases to exist, and becomes yet another victory for Nazi/Stalin/Mao ideology. :)

This has been our MO for decades. Why would members of the military have to resign for killing the wrong people in America?


Drone strikes killing civilians is common. The military holding a press conference to lie about a drone strike that killed civilians isn't.

The fact that you think that it's one sided means that you're part of the problem.

Let's see the massive riots where entire cities are set on fire by "the right". Let's see the assassinations of members of "the left" by members of "the right" because they "supported XXXX".

If you believe it goes both ways, you're high. Because members of "the right" can look at even an idiot like AOC and simply mock her for being the idiot she is. They aren't forming mobs to hunt her down, no matter how frequently she lies to claim it.

Video evidence says more than any nonsensical words. We have black bloc riots nonstop from 2015 to today, racial riots nonstop for the last two years, all being stoked by... The left. And the target? "The Right". The media, with the exception of the one major network that's not on the left? Is defending these acts, and excusing the actions, while further enflaming the rioters.

The worst "The Right" ever did in the last 20 years on any form of wide scale was attempt to claim it was unpatriotic to speak against the Afghanistan/Iraq wars. And the left joined in on that. That was simply war vs anti-war, and there was no violence or dehumanization involved.

Sounds as though that's a religious extremist, not a political extremist. If you're going to paint him "of the right" are you willing to embrace the 9/11 terrorists, pulse nightclub terrorist, etc. etc. as "The Left"?

Make your choice. It seems if we start looking at religious-based terrorism as right/left, that the left has a lot MORE to answer for.

Or maybe you didn't read your own article?
