The last I heard is that Andrew Cuomo is still a Democrat? Why don't you ask him about all those covid-19 cases in nursing homes? New York leads the nation in both cases and deaths, followed by New Jersey, Massachusetts, California and Illinois in that order. All controlled by Liberal, pro- Biden Democrat governors...

This is the mindset of the vast majority of Americans. We have lives, families, jobs, lovers and hobbies. Most people have never heard of QAnon or Antifa and wouldn't even care to know the difference.

We are busy. You old folk can go ahead and fantasize about civil war from your Rascals but you are talking to yourselves and getting your blood pressure up.

IF another civil war actually happened the military would split like it did in 1860. Maybe 2/3rds of military is still GOP leaning though I'm not sure that all of them would automatically support a secession movement. Real question is who would control the nukes. That's were real power lies relative to China and Russia.

I doubt anything will happen.

America is going through a harsh cultural change from its lack of social responsibility.

It shocked me when Katy Tur (an MSNBC reporter) recommended Howard Zinn's history book.

It comes off as bizarre that America's elite would all the sudden read anti-imperialist propaganda but it also came around the time of the George Floyd protests.

There is a new found despise of American history that has become popular and a massive focus on mitigating any hardship in life. Ironically Americans are more stressed out about this 'hardship' than ever before even if its less extreme than before.

Were did this thinking come from? Capitalism that tried to stimulate personal ambition over national identity.

The two sides are one in the same. You reap what you sow.

Funny you ask that, as we see many cities (mostly blue) acro ss the nation under attack by the left. Violence and crime skyrocketing in a matter of weeks. Why is the left so obsessed with violence ? Why is the left committing so much violence ?

It makes sense because Conservatives don't agree with the Protesters!

Conservatives want the Protesters to look as bad as possible!

To give them or the feds permission to do violence on the Protesters!

Why do Conservatives like violence so much?
Protesters are fine. They can protest as much as they want. Lawfully. The moment they break the law, they cease to be protesters. I know it's tough for some to figure that out...not sure why.

That would be a fascinating career. I'm a design engineer but nothing cool, just automotive interiors.
