Ah yes, I do recall both sides having used violence to overthrow the results of an election. I remember how both sides have delayed and rushed Supreme Court nominations in order to allow the majority of the court to be appointed by a minority of citizens. I remember how one side has actively changed laws to make voting for the wrong party harder. Both sides have created created camps that separate children from their family, and then lose those children. Both sides have worked to prevent people from being able to live safely regardless of gender or orientation. Both sides have actively attacked the free press. Etc.

Very much both sides have committed atrocities.

You've managed to provide a perfect example of what the parent comment was trying to point out. You've turned several extremely complex political and social issues into angry one-liners you can scream at your fellow countrymen- your friends, your neighbors, your co-workers. You know, the regular, non-evil people you live beside day in and day out.

Take a break from the news and whatever political Reddit/discord bubble you appear to be in.

Gotta agree with you. This guys is part of the problem and doesn't even realize it. I know people "on the other side" that are equally part of the problem, and don't realize it either. I get called a "centrist" and though I agree on many of the points made, if I disagree with one, I'm suddenly the bad guy not worth listening too since I'm not in 100% agreement. I'm Not until we start holding the media and politicians accountable for their lies and profiting off of them and getting people worked up, and people start thinking critically for themselves, things won't change. The individuals who've been fed this for years are not likely to wake up, at least not the ones I know. This won't end well.
