I didn't know about this and that's because, for the most part, I don't allow these forms of media to creep into my mind and manipulate me. I'm also Canadian, so the USA politics mean nothing to me. I know there's a huge divide and seemingly no such thing as a middle ground over there but as an outsider looking in, people being concerned about who sits next to who is borderline insanity. Is that country truly that boring?
I can't imagine finding my seat at the hockey game, but before sitting, I'm handing a form over to the one in the seat next to me, with questions they must answer, before I can sit. If they don't answer correctly, I have to find a new seat or ask them to leave. If I don't follow procedure and sit next to the proper individual, I might get fired from my job, fined, banished from the tribe.
To even care about who sits next to who and where shows how powerful the media brainwash in the USA truly is. Social media makes it all spread like a virus.
Maybe it's time to stop stalling and just have your little civil war over there. It seems like that's what a lot of people want anyway. May as well just get it over with now so people have to die before they realize sitting next to those you disagree with is how matters get settled.
