You've never been divided THIS badly. Not even close. You've grown into two separate countries living together with separate ideologies and are the opposite side of the coin on every little issue down to the way you should be living in private and each side wants to enforce they're way of living. Harris isn't the end of the American dream nor is Trump, the American citizens are the end of it. |
I think you have tricked yourself into believing that you know more about America than Americans. Or that you have all of our answers. You have convinced yourself that if we were to just reject ourselves and embrace your ideals that all would be well. In your bluster (or just misunderstanding) you have fallen for the words and been taken in. The great 'divide' isn't what you have been sold. It necessarily has to be exacerbated. Politics in and of itself is a profit driven performative art. People will always have differing opinions but it is the function of out political system, for power and financial influence, to create the illusion of a broken, divided and ideologically divergent population. And the point is to take advantage of representation which is the source of power in our democratic republic. Yes, politicians prey on people's fear of the 'other' and a lot of it gets trough and is magnified by the Internet and racist who abuse social media to spread their disease but don't let that or the media (which are just vehicles of political parties) be your source of truth. Politics is a performative art. It is not the truth. Representation is truth
