  > Unfortunately, one side wants to destroy our democracy while the other is completely feeble and inept at even pushing back against them

you know whats interesting (and im not an advocate of this view point at all but) thats exactly what i hear from people who watch fox/tucker/daily wire/oan all day...

i hear alot of things like: we are being oppressed, they (leftists) control all the media, the dems took our election (democracy) away,big-tech are communists that want to destroy america...

they are very motivated because of those points...

Exactly. The objection to and the definition of unfairness is the same. What differs is the facts which allow us to agree on who is being unfair to who. To me, the former is values, the latter is not.

  • yep, facts that are different on different sides, and this makes it extremely hard to find what is really going on for a lot of people...

    its why these media machines are so damaging; people cant/dont talk to each other and discern what is real and what isnt... they just get it stovepiped to them in one direction.
