Look around you. Which side do you belong too? There are only two tribes. The Blue and the Red (MAGA cult).
If you don't belong to either you live in a no-man's zone and are excepted collateral in the battles that are taking place in all 50 states and Washington DC for the soul of America.
Voter suppression and taking away women's freedoms are the 21st century equivalent of slavery in Dixie.
We have a former twice impeached president and convicted sexual abuser trying to openly overthrow democracy and turn our country into an autocracy.
There are politicians who are supporters of sedition in Congress and in every state legislative body.
There's battles every day - mass shootings that go unchecked by MAGA cultists who encourage racism, antisemitism, and homophobia.
The 2nd Amendment has been twisted into a pretzel by the NRA and gun lobby who encourage buying weapons of war like the AR-15 turning it into a symbol for cult followers.
When I look around at the violence in this country today, I see a Civil War underway. The battle between truth and lies gets more intense with the toxic rhetoric flooding some media platforms.
Like the Civil War in the 1860s, we have families divided against themselves. Brother against brother. Family units shattered by two different opinions of what America should look like.
As it stands, the only difference between these two wars is the second one is an undeclared war.
