    The enlightened centrism is strong in this one. No, the US don’t have a conflict of left vs. right. The conflict is between the right and everyone else. And most of the right are just rubes who think they being part of some kind of movement but in reality are just being fleeced by a bunch of grifters

      Not just the right vs. everyone else, the right vs. everyone. The right is also fighting itself.

        The left is also fighting itself. Literally the comment chains in this post are prime examples.

        People who probably align with the majority of the stances, tearing each other down with bad faith arguments, grandstanding over the remaining things they disagree on.

        I might not politically align with the average .ml user, but my views are a hell of a lot closer aligned with them than MAGAt views.
