It's only the very vocal, very insane far left, which is always trying to stir things up, as they have since the 60s. The media then jumps on that for ratings and voila, we all think we're extremely divided.
LOL, I bet many people in the South felt that it was the very insane far left who demanded that Jim Crow laws be abolished.

Like global warming zombie apocalypse?

That's one way to get bipartisanship...

Left cries global warming zombie apocalypse...
The right does a bulk of the farming, owns a majority of the firearms...
Maybe this zombie apocalypse theory of yours would solve the divide as we'd all have a common enemy!

The right uses fear as much as the left does: Fear of Hillary is one of the things that got trump elected.
He keeps using fear like G.W did.




The terrorist are coming, the terrorist are coming. Blah, blah the terrorist are IN office. Not my theory say it with me SCIENCE. Say it as many times as it takes to sink it..


What does the right care about farming?

The right wing never has been as hateful. We didn’t have this much division BEFORE FOX news. They are constantly putting these conspiracy theories on the air with no proof. It’s just to stir things up. That’s what they do best. The worst part is that nobody wants to remove these divisions. Quit making things up and calling them facts. Republicans have changed. No longer a competitive party for the Country. Just a radical right agenda.

trouble is, "The Civil War" is already taken, they'd have to market it with a different brand

Not a member of either party but they all do this they start with a story and they tell the truth up to a given point and then STOP! Then they put their spin on it and blame the other party for it. It's all to keep us fighting each other while they are laughing their arses off. And getting richer.

What does the right care about farming?
Science is the method of testing theories to prove or disprove them...
When has any of those that subscribe to the various degrees of global warming/climate change tested their theories?

They haven't.

Not one.

Collecting data is a process called an observation. Without testing, it is but a theory.

Say it with me...
The right isn't a bunch of toothless hillbillies who are ignorant of science.

More McVeighs is the likely outcome of forcing the left and right to share a political space.

My mom was one of those she would sit by her TV and watch Fox News holding her bible. She went to her grave believing that Obama would declare martial law and stay president and invite the Muslim brotherhood over and the God would come back.


I know many who sadly believed that.
