As long as we live in a country that worships the acquisition of money more than anything else, we will never be free of the hatred and social/political divide that exists today. As long as those in power, stay in power, money will always be the single most worshiped thing, even above their own God(s). Don't believe me? What is the fastest growing form of faith in the country/world?
Seed Faith.
As in, "send me $5 right now, and I will pray for you and GOD will bless you, but only if you send me $5, right now".
The fact that the biggest names in Christianity have now become that, and that the biggest churches in the country follow that, and most of the elected officials are those kinds of Christians, should all tell you that Money is the new Golden Calf, the American Government is their Aaron, Trump is it's high priest, and we have no Moses to come down from the mountain and set things straight.
This is the country we are in, the wanna be fascist dictator is hiding behind Capitalism and Christianity and workers rights, and the people are falling it for it. Conservatives are so worried about socialism and communism and history repeating itself that they don't see that their side is the side that is repeating history, and blindly following the party line. Even if it means children in cages, and minorities killed by cops for no reason, and institutional racism, and abandonment of "all men being created equal", and laws made built on old testament religious laws.
America, being the land of opportunity and freedom and the pursuit of happiness, does not exist if you are not a straight white middle class or higher christian.
Welcome to America, where freedom only exists if you fit into a certain box, being sensitive to peoples needs is being weak, history has been white washed, and the good old days where filled with rampant racism, bigotry, misogyny, and
America is the land where corporations count as people.
Where the rich pay less percentage in taxes than the poor, and where being poor and homeless is often literally a crime.
Where the color of your skin or loving someone of the same gender, not only determines your worth and but both can get you killed, by people and the police.
Where discussing politics or religion in the open is consider ill manners so people are often ignorant of the truth.
Where standing up for the oppressed gets you tear gassed but marching for racial purity gets you a police escort.
Where wanting to help the poor and minorities deems you a "libtard snowflake" but preaching hatred and discrimination can be done from the pulpit with the blessing of GOD.
This is a country where the conservative response to Black Lives Matter is that All Lives Matter, while they actively try to defund all programs helping the poor and disenfranchised proving that all lives do not in fact matter.
Where owning a gun is a right to be able stand up against an overreaching government, but when people stand up to the overreaching government they are called thugs and told to go home.
Where the war on Christianity is literally just people pushing back against the war started by Christians against anyone who isn't like them and/or doesn't want to be like them.
Where all news is filled with opinions rather than just facts, and there is no such thing as spin free news, no matter which side you're on.
Where the most vocal people are the extremists who usually miss the whole point and drown out those who actually have the right idea about progress.
