      I’d almost think our equivalent to 1984’s “reduced vocabulary” is the question of “Are you left wing or right wing?”

      Coming to the forefront as we champion the statistic that, when talking about policies past outrage headlines, a lot of Americans agree on major issues.

        Yeah it’s purely a difference in critical thinking.

        one side listens to what their partisan news and party leaders tell them to hate without question because it’s a cult

        The other doesn’t view politics that way.

        It’s remarkable how much common ground is under all the bullshit. I know because my wife constantly tells me how silly it is every time someone in her job wants to talk politics. They are mostly trumpers and every time they come away going oh I thought it was kids shitting in litter boxes in schools and oh well I hate rich people telling me what to do.

        Like bro. Duh. We are on the same side
