I saw a video about a girl who said she has lost all her friends for posting her political views on social media. This is affecting people more and more. In the comment section I saw something interesting:
"a naive analysis. the division is happening in the spiritual realm, and is simply reflected on earth."
I don't know exactly what this person meant but the way I see it is both left/right are on the same side, and then there are a few who can see the artificial show from a distance.
Instead of writing what I mean I'll just post a video.
Yes, I try to avoid politics when talking with most people.
When dating last year, prior to meeting my current girlfriend - it was interesting to see the left wing women on the dating websites. Many female profiles said: "If you voted for Trump, do not contact me."
I avoided them because if they posted that in their profile before they even meet a person, then they are probably not someone I want to date.
many Trump supporters know this... which is why we voted for an outsider.
If you didn't watch the video here is the essence:
“The argument that the two parties should represent opposed ideals and policies, one, perhaps, of the Right and the other of the Left, is a foolish idea acceptable only to doctrinaire and academic thinkers.. Instead, the two parties should be almost identical, so that the American people can throw the rascals out at any election without leading to any profound or extensive shifts in policy. Then it should be possible to replace it, every four years if necessary, by the other party which will be none of these things but will still pursue, with new vigor, approximately the same basic policies.”

Thanks, but I won't waste 10 minutes watching a random video.
I'm trying to figure out what you mean by left/right on the same side. Maybe 70-80 years ago they were reasonably similar, but not now.

I would assume that if you were trying to figure out what I meant you would take 10min on a video that explains what I mean. I even pointed the essence in the comment above. I'll put it another way, here is another quote by Quigley. This was not a conspiracy theorist, he was a historian and professor in Princeton, Harvard and Georgetown University. He was also Bill Clinton's mentor.
...the powers of financial capitalism had another far-reaching aim, nothing less than to create a world
system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole.
Here is a 3 min video, it's not a "random" video. It's George Carlin, very funny.
