“Halloween is supposed to be about childish fears, not adult fears! I hereby rescind my offer of candy!”
“Don’t you mean ‘renege on my commitments’?”
“…What are they teaching you kids these days?”
There’s nothing inherently wrong with a deeply divided nation. If half the nation drinks coffee and half the nation drinks tea, for example, it’s not like one of the sides is completely wrong. No, the issue is that half the nation is, like their party leader, “simply untethered to the facts.”
The significant ways our nation is deeply divided are pretty hostile, for instance the religious ministries against irreligious movements (e.g. new atheism or nones ) or against each other (the SBC vs. the RCC, for example).
Personally, I’d bling out in full conservative regailia as the trillion-dollar-plus far right propaganda machine that we still don’t know how to counter in future elections.
Though I might be tempted to go as the Federalist Society and its six SCOTUS shills.
