13. "The disease of division" is both siderism BS.

Democrats are not causing any disease of division. Republicans obstructing voting rights that they had previously supported, obstructing Supreme Court nominations when they can, lying about Biden's election being stolen, failing to even condemn the actions of politicians and their followers who incite political violence--that's the problem. Failing to change the filibuster or carve out an exception empowers the dividers and allows the division sowed by the Republican party to grow.
