Here’s James Woods from Twitter yesterday: “This much is certain after all this rioting: in two weeks we’re either going to have a shitload of sick Democrats, or we’re going to realize COVID-19 was not what Democrats said it was.”

Yeah, I agree, seeing people constantly play into this Us vs. Them mentality is stupid.

At best, the two party system is a misguided attempt to balance power in America. At worst, it's meant to keep people divided so the people at the top, who are hardly affected by any laws or policies either of the parties decide on, can continue living in luxury.

We're all being fed the same information, for some reason we just decided to brand ourselves differently.

It's a game to them and the stakes are our lives and value.

They hand over power to switch things up, distract, manipulate, and divide, but really left or right are BOTH moving towards totalitarianism.

Back in 2016 when I was a Trump supporter, I used to get into heated debates with my liberal (Liberal here in Canada) brother over Trump, economics, social issues, etc. But after seeing Trump for who he really is, and escaping the Left-Right hegelian dialectic, I realized that it doesn't matter who's in power: both parties work not for the voters who elected them, but for the corporations and their lobbyists who spend billions bribing "our" politicians.

It's good we woke up. We need to wake others to the manipulation and that /s/Voting_IsARiggedJoke as was proven by the Princeton Study. "Lobbying" is just legalized bribery.

I'm Canadian too. Windsor.
