The US now, more than at any time I can remember, seems to be polarized into two groups who absolutely despise each other. Why not be honest and declare the experiment a failure? Split the country in two and go on with your lives.
When I said “I can remember” I was specifically referring to living memory for me (as a 40yo), not to ancient history going back to the civil war.
I have heard people talking about a potential looming second civil war. When I see Supreme Court justices openly taking sides in political debates I start to wonder what will be next.
Just the latest way for Republicans to tell everybody they’ve given up on democracy.
They haven’t “given up” on democracy.
They’re lighting it on fire and dancing its grave.

The last civil war widow only died a few years ago (Dec 16, 2020).
