You can point at the left all day and find plentiful examples of treachery, but you can do the same thing pointing at the right.

"...The self-esteem movement of the 80s..."

This didn't begin with the Clintons. When Bill was Governor of Arkansas he allowed the CIA to use Mena airfield to bring in Coke - under Bush I. It was the assassination of JFK that ushered in the neocon liberals, who pretend to be opposed to one another by spewing divisionary rhetoric to a public they seek to divide against themselves, and who act together behind the scenes to coordinate our incessant repression.

You note that many Republicans are also criminally involved in betraying America to Chicoms, but did you note that Trump has given $B's to GAVI and Bill Gates plans to force us all to be injected with DNA modifying 'vaccine' while defunding WHO of a few $M's?

It is both cheeks of the traitors that must flap together to fart, and being on either side means you are part of the arse.

The system is dependent on pretense, is corrupted by banksters throughout, and is the problem we face. The solution is to ignore it, do not transact with any part of it, and develop independent means of providing the goods and services necessary to the quality of life you intend to enjoy.

2020 reveals that the rug of dependence is being yanked out from underneath the hordes of indoctrinated cattle, and them as are dependent will be deprived of the necessary sustenance no longer availed them in the corral of their masters.

The right is just as deadly as the left. Be independent of either delusion, or be vulnerable to the consequences of delusion: death and the removal of your genes from the genepool. Evolutionary forces act during cataclysms, and 2020 is revealing it's catastrophic effects.

Independent means is the only definition of wealth that matters. Any form of dependence will force your reliance on unreliable overlords that intend to withhold what is necessary to support all who depend on them.

Dogs and shepherds work together to achieve what neither could alone.

Do not be herded by either.
