Very informative article you posted, thank you very much.
Many Western countries seem to be utterly divided 50/50, (including America) these days.
This is a rather “new” phenomenon that started barely 10 years ago. But why? And how? Something surely happened in order to make this destructive phenomenon come about.
I think that West indeed has a number of flaws, but we could have tackled them if Russia and China had not been masters at “fanning the flames” on those issues - truly exacerbating it all. How did Russia and China managed to do that? Well... they used our very own tools : Social Media.
Social Media is slowly destroying parts of our Western societies by dividing us, making us distrust everything, or making us believe false things... It gives and IMMENSE power to those who want us ill. Social media is the perfect trojan horse giving our enemies a massive propaganda advantage against us.
Putin has certainly been using his Special Services in the US to stir things up. I have no doubt that the agitation of Black Lives Matter, and current Save the Palistinians includes a few very clever and insidious flame fanners.
My ride is urging me to get of my computer, but perhaps FReind Mulligan can give you the URL where my reference to Special Services appears in bullet point #20 about how to cause trouble in the US and Canada
