Probably the healthiest thing to do since that place is such a cesspool. I am so sick of the tribalism on on both sides of the aisle. I was so hopeful for the right for a while. There I was thinking that they were truly going to rise above all of this, but unfortunately, the right has turned into the left, but just with their own policies and agendas. I know it’s difficult when we get super emotional, but anyone who thinks this particular election is unique compared to previous ones, and that were in an existential crisis, is operating from a place of fear which is fundamentally not healthy for us. Fear is our enemy, our main enemy. Fear causes us to behave in ways we otherwise wouldn’t and to give up our values and liberties. The only thing to fear is fear itself. Democrats real discount into a dystopian place because of their fear, and sadly I’m beginning to see Republicans do the same.
Excellent article. Thanks, Ken Klippenstein!
From US domestic politics point-of-view this is a critical-point reading.
“Caracas - A land of peace.“
No, this is not a quote from a “major” news source. But it couldn't hurt - at least, ideally.

Key podcast segment that is very complete in itself. In other words, you really need to watch/listen to the whole segment; that said the Abraham Lincoln quote from 1838 at about the 1m40s mark is a real winner.
