No side of the political spectrum has a monopoly on truth, moral values or on how much or how well they love their children. Both are blinded by any thought that they do. We’ve got to reclaim a golden mean in politics where reasonable people of goodwill simply disagree sometimes.

That is not factually accurate. Left politics are based on practical selflessness, right politics are based on selfishness and greed. And this is to say nothing of the fact that what America considers center is actually right-leaning.

I agree. What is the process?
Replying to @marwilliamson
Somehow, someway, we as a society have to start breaking down the two party system. It is holding us back while at the same time fracturing our nation to a boiling point. We need a third party or no parties at all.

Reclaiming that mean will require dialogue- listening, being open to different information and experience. It means finding compromise by respecting that it is ok to see things differently - ok to agree to disagree. Isn’t it time we all practiced more dialogue?

Marianne, you may be blinded by reasonableness. The StormTRUMPer and his enabling sycophants live by the Big Lie, indifferent to children in cages, mass death, & human suffering. To say that there is some golden mean is to suggest that there are "very fine people" on both sides.

All well and good until you have a regime & it's co-conspirators in state houses and Congress who think it's perfectly fine to take babies out of their mother's arms and lock them into cages. Save that Pollyanna shit for your fantasy about how all people are good or reasonable.

That's exactly what got us here.

The US is mainly comprised of two completely different cultures who want to live in ways that are not compatible. This is not about simply refusing to agree to disagree. The country needs to split up.
