Sure, but trying to fight that by doubling down on divide-and-conquer methods they also perfected, is not helpful either, imo. They anticipate both the reaction and counter-reaction, and the fight between the two ideologies is how divide-and-conquer functions, which always serves those with the most control already. The best response, in my opinion, is to treat both as irrelevant. This way no more fuel is added to the fire, and the situation can begin to de-escalate. Just my opinion.

So well said. We only serve TPTB by staying stuck in these Team Red/Blue fake divides.

Have you noticed that the impeachment theater dors just that, divide people into partisan extremes.
