It is so often said that the nation is “divided,” or “polarized.” The pundits and politicians tell us the fight is between the left and the right, conservatives and liberals or Democrats and Republicans. They are very wrong. The nation is indeed divided, but the divisions are not really the ones they want you to believe.

The divisions they promote are designed to create a fake fight. It is manufactured spectacle in order to divide We the People against ourselves, so that the ruling elite in Washington, DC, and those who feed the spectacle and profit from it in the media can maintain their power. The real fight in America is between the ruling elite, and We the People. And for the most part, We the People are united against that ruling elite. Need evidence?
