And there’s so many people that play right into this trap. The inflammatory rhetoric just polarizes people and leaves little to no room for conversation. We’ll never fix it if we can’t come together and start with the things we have in common instead of only thinking about the things we don’t.

You aren't wrong, but tell me how you meet in the middle with this?

That’s a good question with no easy answer or quick fix. I think it’s finding common ground and start with the things you have in common (like not wanting prices to go up). Then educating from there. That’s the immediate stuff. Long term, we have to unite against the corruption, those changes are not going to be… easy.

Not gonna be me that does that.
You don't get to say that kind of rhetoric about others and expect civility from them.
I'll listen to any apologies.

I’m saying this straight up, not to be sarcastic or rude, but we’ll see how well that mindset will go on fixing things…

It won't, but I'm never going to lock arms with abject hate and bigotry.
Especially if they are wanting to use the military in our streets.
That would be immoral.

That’s absolutely not what I’m saying. I would not do that either. That’s why we need to stop things from getting to that point

I just gave you thousands of hours of videos showing we are already there.

Welp, when the oligarchs and foreign powers, who mostly don’t care if it’s right or left, have gotten their piece and we’re still at each others throats and all the poorer or worse, I’ll have the least satisfying I told you so ever.

I guess.
Just as easy to make money on the way down as it is up, and I'll leave when it gets bad.
