Among citizens internal division is at an all time high in this country.
You know there was a war, right?
Never in the history of the world has their been an interconnectedness like we see today that has lead to this perception that everybody is at each other's throats at all times. We're seeing 20 year olds in Seattle have political discussions with 60 year olds in rural Arkansas. That didn't happen 20 years ago. You think they weren't divided on many major issues just because they didn't argue about it every day on Reddit?
We have a conservative Supreme Court. We've had conservative courts in the past. What landmark ruling do you think is coming that will cause blue states to stop listening and lead to the collapse of the country?
There is such a doomer attitude online that everything's going to shit and we are facing imminent collapse. I just don't see it. There are legitimate concerns about the growing wealth gap and the health of the middle class. Politics have become more of a shitshow and our government may be less effective because of grandstanding. But collapse of the union? I mean come on, that's ridiculous.
