Trutharian
Essentially America has split into two warring tribes, the blue and the red, with a number of Americans disgusted with both of them, among which is the author of this post. One could also describe them as two rival street gangs.
___
The current version of politics:
If a Democrat says something, Democrats believe that must be true and Republicans believe that must be false.
If a Republican says something Republicans believe that must be true and Democrats believe that must be false.
One hears:
Trump is Satan. Biden is Satan. Democrats are destroying the country. Republicans are destroying the country.

Truth is the casualty.
Both sides are far more concerned with winning than with truth.
Both sides say “look at them, they're so bad because of______”, like two children pointing fingers at each other.
Often both sides are accurate in what they say about the other side but of course they deny all accusations against their side.
Both sides have their own propaganda outlets which do their best to create fear and frenzy in their partisans. Manny on both sides believe their media. In particular many Democrats still believe in partisan propaganda like the New York Times and CNN.
Some of us are trutharians. We simply evaluate what is said based on the best information we can find and we will dig for information. We look at the problems of the country that need to be solved and we simply look for solutions without regard to who is saying them and who will be made to look good and who to look bad.
That's what this country needs right now. Forget your ideology, forget your tribal affiliation, look for truth and solutions.
Give up being a partisan
