Our Forefathers didn’t have a BA in Government, yet they managed to create the most successful government in human history. Being educated in a specific field gives you a certain advantage, but it is not defining or necessary. Especially when modern education is a shitshow to begin with. What’s important is your ability to think for yourself, critical thinking skills, etc. Your advantage is being versed in certain facts that the average person might not be aware of.
The Continental Congress spent a lot of time arguing and debating, often times in extreme opposition, before finally agreeing upon the Constitution and Bill of Rights as we know them. That is exactly what we need. Both of you make valid arguments. Continued debate would most likely result in an optimal solution.
While I agree with the initial post, there are people on the Right that have been in there for ages getting nothing done as well. Imo the entire system has failed and is corrupt. The Party system of government needs to end, I have never liked it personally. It only creates division. People acting like raving sports fans for their “party”. The division the media has propagated continually has become crippling. We need to vote for people, not the party. I am an independent, but I tend to vote more right. I take issues as they are and what I think works, not which way the current agenda’s wind blows or party it belongs to.
The obsessive fake news, which is pretty much daily, about Trump just proves even more how corrupt and broken things are. If you want daily updates on all the lies and spin the news spews, just watch Tim Pool or Tim Pool IRL on youtube.
This is not the country I grew up in anymore. It’s all become foreign to me. The way people are and think just makes no sense to me. The SJW/PC culture has been allowed to destroy everything built. Our history is being rewritten with the SJW/PC narrative, and it’s a lie. What once was good, is now bad, What once was bad, is now good and nearly worshipped. We have a less than 1% of the population being catered to and knee bent to, telling us we need to change our speech and how we communicate with eachother. If I do not refer to someone in their “proper pronouns” I could even be jailed in some places, lose my job, etc.
I feel like I am in an upside down world. I really have no friends, because it’s so hard to find like minded people, and because of the backlash I could get when people “found out” I voted for Trump. I have been single for 10+ years, because the dating world has been taken over by that ideology too. I can barely turn on a movie or TV show without being preached to. Video games are bending the knee now too. I mean, god forbid people play Lara Croft in her underwear or a anime character in skimpy kawaii clothes. What a HORRIBLE crime. But, I sure can blow up and kill people at will.
Things just seem so dire and I just crave good intellectual and civil conversation.
