(15,355 posts)The Civil war was mostly involved the military and the North had the resources to win the day from the very beginning. The "good guys also have working margins in our systems of government, which were at worst modestly corrupted.
N E V E R in our history has our governments and normative systems been as whole corrupted as they are now, and that is where this fight is - the right spends EVERY waking moment distorting and tearing it down. It is coming around all around us - which led to 45, and the thousands of craven right wing lunatics in DC, state and local governments.
And, sorry to say, each and every day the country just rolls over.
I posted that even before 45 won in 2016 ad it is worse now.
In one day a few days ago you had a state legislator calling, in session for hanging people from trees and lunatics at CPAC going on about eradicating transexualism - not a peep from the media or a care from the average american.
There was a time that a governor would not even think to pull the stunts Abbott has pulled with shipping migrants all over the country like he did, because he or she would have run out of office in a heartbeat.
Again, our media and country could give a shit.
