The American people need to stop seeing the other party as the enemy. As long as that’s in place, the parasites at the top will remain in power.
Unfortunately, it’s easy for them to create conditions to perpetuate and widen the American political schisms. And they’ve convinced both sides the common historical solutions (nationalism, limited democracy, religion) are for low IQ bigots. Things are likely too far gone.
- staticautomatic 2y agoThe republican corporatist leaders are indeed the enemy. Their voters are not.
- pphysch 2y agoThe slain CEO was a Democrat, like many of his peers. Again, it's not about political party. Red vs Blue partisan theatre is a tool used by the united ruling class to divide the exploited classes.
- staticautomatic 2y agoThe person I replied to didn't assert that he was a Republican. Your comment is inapposite. And the Democrat elite is also the enemy.
- wat10000 2y agoConsider what happened with the public option in Obamacare. Both parties played a part in defeating it. The Democrats’ part was that they had 59 Senators in support, and one single dude opposed. The Republicans’ part was that they had 40 opposed and none in favor. Because a 60% majority was required, it failed. That does not look to me like both sides are at fault and we need to think of it differently. That looks to me like Democrats are imperfect but largely aligned with what I want, whereas Republicans are resolutely in opposition.
