    apparently if you're not being paid by a multinational to purvey fake news, your opinion is cheerleading.

    OP: "Political scientist Eitan Hersh says there's been a rise in "political hobbyism" in the United States. We treat politics like entertainment, following the latest updates like we follow our favorite sports teams."
    Jack: This sums up my position pretty well. Red Team blathers their talking points, while Blue Team quotes the Political Correct manual they've been issued.

    The "expert" is an asshole.

    The objective of virtue signaling is self gratification.

    Not only do you ignore the fact that voters switch parties, but you ignore the fact that the Democrats are deeply divided among themselves, at this time. So much for your stupid "team meme" bullshit.

    This is AssHat (Red Team member) receiving 'self-gratification':

    AssHat: "good, and go fuck yourself on the way out."
    Jack: TinyDog. Don't tell me AssHat didn't get a Woodie on THAT.

    Op: "we should think of politics as a way to acquire power and persuade our neighbors to back the issues we support."

    It is quite obvious that the "liberal expert" is speaking to virtue singling millenial democrats.

    The illiterate dumbfucks are those that can’t distinguish an adjective from a noun.

    This is probably 'promoted' by outside interests using the 'Divide and Conquer' theory.

    The Most Clear Example to me was when Obama suggested a 'punitive strike' on Assad and Syria for using Banned Chemical Weapons. Red Team went berserk in opposition. Then ...
    Trump suggested the SAME THING ... and Red Team did cartwheels in agreement.

    This type of divisional thinking is EXACTLY what China, Russia, and others want. THEY ... are winning a War that the US is unaware is being waged.
    A house divided against itself cannot stand!!!
    "There is no question former President Trump bears moral responsibility. His supporters stormed the Capitol because of the unhinged falsehoods he shouted into the world’s largest megaphone," McConnell wrote. "His behavior during and after the chaos was also unconscionable, from attacking Vice President Mike Pence during the riot to praising the criminals after it ended."
