The USA resembles China more and more - a huge central government, run by apparatchiks who feel its their job to manage every aspect of economy and society. “Politics" is merely elites at the center of the regime trying to grab power. As you point out, the losers of the great game then become “insurrectionists” and are destroyed by state-run media.

“When all government ...in little as in great things... shall be drawn to Washington as the center of all power; it will render powerless the checks provided of one government on another, and will become as venal and oppressive as the government from which we separated.” — Thomas Jefferson, 1821
