>Things don't necessarily go hot all at once. To me there's no such thing as a cold civil war. If it's not hot, it's not a civil war. The USA has not crossed the line into civil war, it's not too late to exit your echo chambers and start talking to each other again. I wholly agree with that wiki page on debate of a second civil war starting about 2008. Honestly havent seen that page in some time and it's much more verbose. I think from a quick skim it's quite good. "First black president" in the USA was going to be rife with identity politics. No amount of effort would fix this, but you have to deal with the consequences of bringing identity politics back. Not only was there no attempts at a

If they had the kind of sway over the public you say they had, then Trump wouldn't have recieved a record 72 million votes in 2020. They spent 4 years lambasting him over every single thing they could and the impact was an election about 90 million people in the US Think was rigged. Stuff like this doesn't help the optics.

>This is insane. One side is doing everything they can to rig elections The democrats? [this video] that's not a gaffe. If you assert it's a gaffe, you must now explain a ton more. >And then the other side is judged for being taken aback by that? Are we supposed to pretend like nothing is happening? Someone could blame the media but that's beside the point. The USA is more divided today that I have ever seen it. According to articles ive read, the divide is larger today than it has been since the civil war. Thusly probable that another civil war is coming but oh boy is this one ever going to be one sided.
