The Lowdown
America has a problem. America has always had a problem, but how America became ignorant to that problem didn’t become reality when Trump entered politics it is a reality that has existed for generations in American politics. Both the Democratic and Republican Party are equally guilty in the sensse of abusing and taking advantage of everyday Americans for their own personal gain. Gain that is often only possible at the expense of someone else an often negative one at that.
But America ‘s problem goes so much deeper than that. Centuries ago the Democratic party was what the Republicans claim they now are. Racist ‘slave’ owners who never quite got their voters off of the ‘plantation.’ In reality, Republicans are the very thing they claim Democrats are — they’re just much better at selling their message than Democrats are. Democrats have lost the plot in terms of messaging and getting their programming out to the masses. An asounting failure mostly at the hands of Democratic leadership who actually looks more like a old folks retirement park than the halls of power.
Perhaps that’s why Trump won the election. While there were plenty of ‘Never Trumpers’ and the like, one can gather, that just enough people who were and are disillusioned with the Democratic party decided to vote Trump. A disillusionment that for some reason Democratic leadership can’t see.
Republicans are now the party of the wealthy propping up their hate campaigns at the expense of the fear of their party. The human fears; illegitimate fears, and related of the Republican party have become their greatest weapon.
But that’s not the problem. Well that is one of the problems but the glaring problem here is that division sells. With a divided America, the government then has the leway to step in and be like okay “ABCDEFG” because there is discourse; social unrest, or related. With a divided America this means that the government can use that division to further laws; make legislation, restrict freedoms based on public fears, and more.
It’s a tell as old as time. Humans are being used at every step of their life. Manipulated by propaganda, masterfully edited videos, staged political division, and controlled by a system that is not meant to be considered free.
Because in all honesty if everyone got along, there was less robbery, no murders or serious crimes, and all of these other things there would be no reason or purpsoe of the government. Because government as it is today begs the question: Is Democracy real or is it just a facade to keep people in line?
America has a problem, but will the country rise to solve it?
