I remember, and I am sure that many others do if they are honest with themselves. America needs to stand united. We have let politics drive a deep wedge between neighbors and families.

We live at the peak of the information age but our natures have not changed. Both left and right need to focus on being unified, not strong-arming the other side.

And people on "the left and right" need to remember that plenty of people don't believe in "sides" and just want to live their lives without being bullied around by whoever happens be in power or whatever ideas are popular at the moment.

I don't want unity. People obsessed with politics think they just need consensus to solve any problem, despite the atrocious track record of political solutions. Just leave the rest of us alone.

> I don't want unity

And this sentiment is problematic, because other countries have unity and are not afraid to use it.
