How do you explain that?

I also don't really listen to the establishment left or any corporate media organizations that much (I will admit, I did like John Stewart back in the day some), but sometimes I do agree with some (or aspects or parts) of what some of these say.

This extreme polarization and inability to see any of the other sides points, doesn't do any of us any good. This is exactly what the plutocrats who play and fund both sides of the aisle want.

Awhile back, I shared a TedX talk by a Harvard Professor talking about an in-depth/thorough statistical research study done by Princeton into US Federal politics, which showed that the majority will of the people and voting, did not have an appreciable effect on core policies which favored the wealthiest and the special interest groups. That the trends of influence clearly followed who donated most/more (i.e. corporations, wealthy individuals, etc)

This was looked at over decades and through both Democratic and Republican majority.

How do you explain that, if there is truly this war of good vs evil between the Democrats and Republicans? Or if voting and the will of the people "matter"?

Have you considered that maybe clever and power oriented people tend to project an image, and say they care about and believe in this or that, but that it perhaps might be more of a ruse than anything?

I kind of liked, and was hoping that AOC may have been one of the good and sincere politicians, but when she blatantly lied/deceived about events around the Capital protest, I realized that this tentative hope/optimism about her was misguided. Because truly good people, tend to be more honest and sincere than not.

(I still hold out hope/optimism that Sanders falls into the latter, but it really doesn't matter, as dream Sanders told us in my partner's dream, "they won't let me win".)

I really get the very strong feeling/intuition that there is a part of you that is stubbornly resistant to seeing just how truly and deeply bad and corrupt things are now, and that you are holding on by a thread to a belief that the Democrats are the good guys and that things are going to someday get better.

Never mind Biden's blatant racism, his multiple female creepiness incidents, the fact that as soon as he got into office his admin started bombing/attacking another nation, etc, etc.

Why are you so scared to see things as they truly are? Just because it is depressing and upsetting? Do not worry, but be of good cheer there is a Creative Force and Creative Forces and these plan to intervene and to nudge humanity in a better and more healthy direction. They know we can't do it on our own at this point. They only step in when things get this bad and freewill starts leading to utter chaos and destruction. (This world/humanity is a valuable school and they don't want to see it burned completely to the ground).

Texas Tribune Corrects Claim Coronavirus Hospitalized 5,800 Children in a Week
Paul Bois
12 Aug 2021

The Texas Tribune had to issue a mea culpa this week after falsely claiming that 5,800 children were hospitalized from the coronavirus in the course of just seven days.

In an article posted Thursday, the Texas Tribune argued that pediatric hospitals in the Lone Star State were under significant stress not only from the coronavirus but also from an outbreak of the respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), which primarily infects children aged fivee and under. Originally, the article claimed that 5,800 children were hospitalized in the course of a week when the number was actually 783 over the course of a month, between July 1 and August 9.....
