1/ Of all the things the left surrendered to the right over the last 40 years, patriotism and morality are the two that have hurt us the most.

2/ The right doesn’t walk it’s talk but the left doesn’t talk it walk, too often sneering at issues of the heart with a condescension that has sent millions of people to the other side of the political divide.

3/ In truth, human beings are hardwired for connection to both tribe & moral sensibility. If you don’t give them a genuine version, they become easy prey for those who are peddling the counterfeit version. Patriotism and public morality are topics that should belong to all of us.

Please don't confuse the REAL left in this country with the faux left, otherwise known as Democrats.

To simplify this, Dems overestimate the intelligence of others. Republicans underestimate the intelligence of others.

I’ve had my conversations from the left, n no amount of attempts at dialogue could unglue them from the corp media propaganda machine, regardless of facts, historical data, and common sense: not condescension; it’s a matter of challenging a belief system based on blind faith

This is such a sad but true statement. When I drive through rural PA or VA, and a house is flying an American flag, there is very often also a Trump sign as well. Biden not so much. The American flag shouldn’t signal who a person is voting for, but it definitely does now.

And the vitriol the left has received from those looking for a secular faith based on Corp media propaganda? It appears Your judgement may be a conflicted ideological perspective

Both sides tend to be moral and patriotic people. It's those in the government and on twitter who tend to talk the loudest talk and make those sneering reactions you mention. And to that point, you're right, it absolutely does push people across the divide.
