Let's Review

Leeja Miller explains.

"... always manning the barricades ..."

The Great Divide

She gets pretty close to it, but pulls up short.

It's a good look at how fucked up American politics is, and how we may be able to get thru some of by applying a few techniques that sound like they came straight out of Family Counseling For Dummies. (I'm not mocking that btw - some things just kinda land funny for me sometimes)

Anyway, what's missing here is attention to an effort at finding the source of the problem. Like I said, she mentions politicians and wealthy benefactors, but she doesn't address the bad actors coming at us thru social media - and cable TV, and traditional media - that (IMO) are being sponsored &/or supported by the Russians or the Chinese or or or.

Manage the symptoms as best you can, and the patient either gets better or croaks pretty much on his own. But ya gotta nail the fuckin' diagnosis, y'know?

Leeja Miller has found some good guidance on how to de-escalate and maybe get ourselves a chance to avoid killing each other.

Heads Up

The Daddy State is still gunning for us. If we're not ready, we're fucked for sure this time.
