I don't. With the rise of 24 hour cable "news" all it has done is led to a bigger divide. These far right and far left sites all try to get people mad and hate the opposite side.

And it works, I would say it works. Look at many of the comments on this thread, so full of hatred. And the internet also has allowed echo chambers to form and people flock to them. Many here hate opposing viewpoints. They just want people to tell them they are right in their thoughts.

It’s certainly possible in DC. Two sides of the same coin

Unity will never happen because the Dems want a stacked deck.

if Trump is reelected in 2024.


But, what if there is a reason that miltary bases, and federal offices still have Trump, Pence, and Barr pics up on the wall(even here in La), some 13 months later. And/or no Biden pics up as CIC. Slow photomat supply chains..or something else?

What if the PEADs and EOs(like 13848, etc..) had actual purpose? Why is Gitmo two decades past the Gulf War, having a second courthouse being built, with media room, and medical facilities that will be able to handle geriatrics. When this current regime wants it shuddered.

Why does Jen Psaki pause to let an jet's noise interupt her WH media presser? Surely it's well insulated and a no fly zone.

What makes a great movie?

This feels like a really weird attack as I clearly described the innocence of the people who visited the Capitol on January 6th and if you take a look at my post history I'm firmly on the conservative side.

I would erect a catapult on our side of the border and as illegal immigrants cross they are loaded onto the catapult and returned to where they came from. 300 yard range should be fine.

NO! Both sides want the opposite, you can’t compromise when there is no common ground.

The system is designed for friction.
The two sides use the friction to raise money
Social media has put it into hyper gear

Unless and until there is some sort of campaign finance reform, the stakes will grow

This is from a white liberal woman as we argued over the little black girl stealing the barbie doll.

You can't unite with a mentality like this.

How do you unify with someone who:


-Enabled a coup to take over your country and does not posses the self awareness or mental agility to comprehend the truth much less own up to it

-Does not hold or support the values or beliefs this country was established by

-Willfully and actively destroys our foundations with acts of violence

-Fosters & perpetuates the demise of our personal existence

-Functions from a base of lies & delusional ideology

-Systematically destroys everything under their control

-Will never contribute on equal terms rather desires & requires the assistance of others regardless of terms




Unity? frick no & never. This is our forever Holy War.

In my opinion we are in a moral divide, history shows it could get bad, I pray not. There is a complete difference in our moral beliefs right now. Time to choose!

Not in the near term. Our institutions are horribly broken. It's going to take extreme measures to cure the sickness and to remove the rot. There is no way anyone on the left is going along with the reforms that are needed.

Exactly. There's an ethos that needs to be stamped out. It needs to be uprooted. It has infested all of our institutions and we have allowed it to fester for decades. There is no other way forward. Failure to act has put us in a downward spiral and we will descend into utter chaos without revolutionary change now.

Both sides have to stop trying to control the behavior of the other. Texans need to let Californians decide how to run California and vice versa. The solution is less power in DC, not more. Instead of a constant tug of war to control the federal government and see how much more power their side can usurp to impose their will, people should wake up to the understanding that the best way not to have to fear the other side taking control is to take control away from Washington in the first place.
