1. Break down echo chambers
2. Replace house and senate leadership positions with procedural positions
3. Realize the political divisions are city/rural and not simply regional
4. Acknowledge that terms like “white supremacy” and “marxism” are being used to rile up simpletons rather than improve the lives of Americans
5. Destroy Trumpism

#3 is important.
But #5 is ridiculous. You call it Trumpism, I call it a populist movement.

I knew 5 would be unpopular here, but it’s true. His movement is largely fueled by spite. There’s no getting around that. There’s no such thing as unity if he’s a major political force.

Quit trying to censor and cancel viewpoints you don't like.

Quit the race-baiting.

Quit viewing the fringe on one side as representative of the whole.

Quit the war against the nuclear family and indoctrinating children that America is systemically evil and racist.

I’m going to get hammered for saying this, but the GOP/conservatives needs to drop their pro-life purity test if they’re also going to insist on removing social welfare programs designed to help young, mostly unwed mothers. If you’re going to force someone who’s unprepared to have a baby they can’t afford, then you shouldn’t yank the safety net out from under their feet.

You mean like when we nominated Trump?

No but the voters nominated probably the only person who wasn’t pro life

Might want to tell your evangelical friends that. Mine are convinced Trump is a born again Christian and couldn’t care less about positions he’s taken in the past regarding abortion and choice.

This.

When one can't see past their hatred of a certain individual or ideology, no hope for "reconciliation" can ever be made.

It always cracked me up in Iraq those talking about how the Sunni and Shi'a sects would "reconcile" their differences and get along all happy with unicorns eating cupcakes and prancing on rainbows. Adding being tribal on top of the fact Shi'a and Sunni were historically way different ideologies and you set a recipe for disaster.

We're tribal in this nation on an ideological divide and nothing is going to change. The events of the last two weeks prove that.

History isn't being made here, it's being repeated just like it has time and time again.

Bruh, please...

If you can't figure out there is ample amount of spite on both ****ing sides, you're part of the problem.

I think left wing ideology is incompatible with living together. It’s already starting with left and right now having our own social media. Full blown succession will be the next step and I don’t see away around it.

The other side believes in top down government and intends on packing the courts, packing the senate (by adding two left wing states), repealing the Hyde amendment, and ending the filibuster.

It leaves you with only two options. You either conform and give in to the left, or you leave.
