Nope, that's what all those think tank billions paid for, the well heeled and well financed and penetrating narrative that insists that everything is binary.
We are CONDITIONED to think that way because a handful of very powerful people WANT US to think that way, or else.
When they plunk down their billions they expect to get results and if they don't, they start breaking sh!t until they do get them.

Again, certain people spent BILLIONS of dollars to ensure that people would think that way now. It took a while, but it's hard-baked into the national consciousness now.

One was my son who has, now, changed his mind. Even then I just don't talk politics with him and everything is dandy. All 'conservatives' are not racist, or wife beaters, or all the rest. All Liberals don't want to bankrupt the nation to give said nation away or bankrupt it. These are, I think, simple facts.

All these left/right arguments are kinda silly unless somebody is changing a mind due to them. After a while it must be exhausting. I have a wife in that state right now and its sad (she is a serious lefty, used to work for the Dems, thinks Trump is a monster (close), and majored in political science (that title has always bothered me)

Just saying............

And when the civil war starts in earnest and the bullets are flying willy nilly, a lot of people will suddenly figure out exactly who it is that really has the "mental disorder".
