It's because we've moved past the phase where all sides have stopped talking to each other, let alone screaming. Now its just silence. Deafening and total silence. Because we're not listening either. If your hair isn't standing on end then you aren't truly paying attention to the political atmosphere nationally. You know those jokes about "its habbening" and then nothing ever happens? I got a gut hunch that those jokes aren't relevant anymore. An illegitimate government of no authority, ruling with secret police, and mass propaganda and a heavily armed public with more weapons than the worlds most powerful military. An illegitimate government of no authority, leaving no viable options, punishing all self defense, prosecuting its enemies at every turn, making clear its every intention to use force to silence dissent and punish any ttempts at peaceful redress of the public's grievances, while talking down to everyone and openly declaring war against 80 million people. What could go wrong?
