    There’s like fifty layers of context involved but the short version is that we’re currently losing the American Civil War that never properly ended because we didn’t hold the traitors to account. The nation hasn’t been this divided since we had separate drinking fountains for black people. I’d bet that most Americans on this platform did not choose ignorance and pettiness.
