Hopefully Americans will wake up some day and realize that the Left/Right split was manufactured by the ruling class as a way to pit people against each other as the rulers grab political power.

BTW, you are right in noticing that the difference between parties isn't simply about positions but about the way that different groups approach problems. The US Founders showed that they preferred to solve problems through deliberation and compromise. However, they were willing to stand in Revolution when pushed too far.

The modern political class seems unwilling to engage in deliberation and refuses to consider compromise.

Even worse, the fringe elements seem willing to engage in extreme action in response to trivialities.
