“How are we to bridge the gap between those who believe men can become women and women can become men and those who don’t believe this?”

How are we to bridge the gap between those who believe in global warming and those who are sane?

Realistic headline-—”The good - evil divide is not bridgeable”.

That is why I opposed any Presidential debates this year.

There is nothing to debate.

There is nothing to discuss.

The two sides have competing narratives, competing agendas, competing language.

There is no “middle”. There is no “fair”.

Those days are gone.

He’s probably correct but I think it is basically the outer 15-20% on either side which has no interest in sharing a nation with the other side. The majority still are happy to share the nation...to remain joined.

The author didn’t mention abortion; one side who thinks it is outright murder and those who celebrate it. That can never be reconciled. And one more thing:

“rooted in Judeo-Christian values”

There’s no such thing.

Delusion Will Never Defeat Biology!

Today’s culture of affirmation is mere delusion and mental illness that is doing a disservice to addressing the mental health needs of children.

Now people are identifying as Cats and Dogs.

TORRANCE STEPHENS, PHD, FEB 25, 2024

When a person has or maintains a false belief or judgment about overt and objective external reality, and holds such views in defiance despite unquestionable authentication to the contrary, clinicians and therapists appropriately describe this as delusion and reflective of some form of mental disorder.

Delusions are beliefs that are plainly untrue and that indicate an abnormality in the affected person’s content of thought. More problematic is these individuals are positively assured that the delusion is real.

From a mental health perspective, delusions may be indicative of multiple mental disorders including but not limited to Psychotic disorders, substance-induced psychotic disorder, Bipolar disorder, Major depressive disorder, delusional disorder, schizophreniform disorder, shared psychotic disorders, brief psychotic disorder, and several others. Typically these refer to individuals who show a diminished or distorted sense of reality resulting in the inability to tell what is real from what is unreal. If identifying yourself as clown gender isn’t a sign of sever mental disorder then nothing is.

Very simple-

War and impoverishment
or
Peace and prosperity.

Dems are headed towards being a boutique party of the coastal elites and little else.

They had no reconciliation after the massive losses under Obama-they kicked the can down the road with Lerner, Russia, Ukraine, scamdemic and they may cheat their way to win again in 2024. It does have a pay the piper end date eventually.

I’m surprised that Mr. Praeger did not put the evil, vile, and reprehensible “Murdering babies” at #1 on his list of divides.

I wondered why the author didn’t say “The left-right divide is never bridgeable” . . . and then I noticed it was Prager, who thinks there are liberals that are separate from left-wingers, still.

“There is now no denying there are 2 diametrically opposed nations within our borders: America and Antiamerica. We are not willing to live at the mercy of each other under a political shift every 4 years. The response to our unresolvable conflict is to recognize that there is one nation under common-natural law, one nation under mob rule: a 2 country system.”

I wrote this 11/28/2020 and didn’t post it because I don’t think a 2 country system works.

So far, Americans, sadly, seem to prefer the right to kill babies over the right to not have the babies they don’t kill corrupted by leftist crazies in their schools.

In a political context, “Left” and “Right” are meaningless terms.

First of all, “Left” and “Right” originally was used to denote stance on a single issue (whether King Louis XVI would have unlimited veto power over France’s new democratically-elected legislative assembly). Modern politics is far too complex, far too fractured, to be represented in any meaningful sense as a simple linear construct.

Secondly, as used in a modern context, it always was destined to be either an over-simplification, or to be demagogued to death. And the latter is where it has been proved most useful. Anything the Left wants to vilify, they invariably term “far-Right,” with no regard for its true political orientation.

For example, they frequently try to proclaim Hitler “far-Right,” despite the fact his organization used the term “socialist” in its self-appointed title. The claim is literally meaningless but all the little Marxists in the “Amen!” section eat it up.

It has never been "Right vs Left" -- a miscasting of identifying language. Rather, it is, and always has been "Truth vs Lies" from the very beginning of time.

Trying to compromise the two always, always results in a loss of integrity for the compromiser.

Millions of Americans, depressed by the ideological divide in America, harbor a wish that something or someone can bridge this divide.

This wish is understandable. But it is fantasy. The divide is unbridgeable. One might as well wish that daily consumption of a hot fudge sundae will lead to weight loss.

It's as impossible of the long-discussed two-state solution for Israel and the Palestinians.
