The Bloodless War against American Exceptionalism

Unprecedented social and political conflict was laid bare in 2017, the likes of which have seldom been seen before. Our American social fabric is in tatters. We are looking less enlightened and more divided than at any time since the Civil War. Progressives on both seaboards are in a battle for political supremacy over old-school thinkers. Boundaries are analogous to a resurrection of the Mason-Dixon line, except it's now the East and West Coasts versus the rest of America. Comparing more recent history, we look even less unified than we did in the 1960s – which says something painful about our current political climate. What's it all about?

Good observations about the current state of affairs regarding public discourse after the election.

Not written at an 8th grade level so useless to recommend to the masses, but, I think my FR Friends will enjoy.

First, there has been blood spilled. The global communists have been attacking the values and traditions of our country, along with the very rule of law itself. Have not innocent police been gunned down - just because they were police? Let’s not forget the Republican Congressmen’s practice softball game, where Representative Scalise was shot.

I have also let go of people who could not get past the politics. I hold the media responsible for this because of the lies or lack of reporting. Mandela was a socialist and his experience and what he did was his experience. Forgiveness was something he felt he had to do.

We’ve been lied to. Denied our rights by the left. Oppressed. They even attempted to conduct a coup on our legitimately elected President.

I do not want a socialist/communist government. I want the government that our founders gave us.

As long as our government remains national rather than federal, it will impose one-size-fits-all diktats across the nation. Our once noble Supreme Court decides for whom bakers must bake cakes.

It wasn’t supposed to be that way.

If our Marxist enemies actually believed in diversity, they’d demand repeal of the 17th Amendment.

What's it all about?

It's about the fact that with Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, talk radio in general, the internet being available to publish alternate views, a general political awakening facilitated by all of the above, and liberals finally coming fully out of the closet about the dystopian world they want to inflict on us, the middle and right have finally decided to stand up and say enough. Liberals, being used to winning, and with their self righteous world view, are enraged at being resisted. How far this ultimately goes, and whether it ends in violence, tyranny or freedom, remains to be seen.
