I agree with you. Broad generalizations and inaccurate statements have contributed in a big way to where we're at now. Those generalizations, stereotypes, and mistruths are all over the place in our society. They're on the news, in TV shows and movies, in the media, and blurted out by politicians incessantly.

Our society is continuously being manipulated by people with an agenda, and it's been going on for a long time. ‘Divide and conquer’. That's the mantra. Soldiers are ‘baby killers’. Cops are racist. Trump voters are deplorables. Minorities just want handouts. Democrats care about minorities. Republicans care only about money and helping the corporations. Etc. etc.

It's actually miraculous, and a testimony to the intrinsic goodness in the hearts of so many in society, that we get along as well as we do - despite the constant barrage of divisiveness and negativity we're exposed to.

It would never happen but the Game Show Channel should create a game show all related to American History and our USC.
