    This is what happens when you turn politics into two sided shit slinging, team red v team blue, us vs them, my favorite football team vs their shitty rival.

      I suppose so, but we usually only see this level of fanaticism from one of the sides, and it happens to be the side that turned politics into a massive clown show.

      Well, publicly anyway. In the last 50 years.

      I don’t have a favorite football team in this analogy. I have one team that really could do better in a great many ways, and another that wants to turn us into a Gilead-style post-apocalyptic right wing authoritarian wet dream.

      So yeah, anyone but those guys, please.
