I am extremely saddened. People are staunchly divided between the "liberal" and "conservative" parties. I've noticed one very alarming trend, though and that is, when the general population posting on these forums comes across an opinion that differs from theirs, instead of debating the issue, they come out with their claws extended scratching personal attacks into the one whose opinion differs. This occurs more so with one group versus the other.

It is a monstrosity that the majority of our population has permitted their fall to senselessness, ruthlessness and division. It is an absolute horror to see the ignorance of political stances place a blindfold over an otherwise intelligent populace to the daunting disparity that plagues our lives and moreover, our very livelihoods. It is an absolute travesty that the voices of every day citizens today are loathed in anger against their very own peers, rather than bathed in meaningfulness. 

“The Great Divide has begun its journey of achievement. Supporters now stand to the left and cynics now stand to the right. Paradoxically, it is of great logic in the context of destruction from the inside…The weak have been preyed upon; the biased have been reinforced; the believers have been separated from the nonbelievers; the greedy have been reaffirmed; the enraged have been angered; the saddened have become fearful; and the meek have become assertive.”

It is extremely distressing to see that a once faith-based, united country has permitted itself to fall victim to such malevolence by design.  To watch the intelligence of a free and clear thinking populace fall prisoner to meaningless propaganda is beyond pitiful, it is downright deplorable.
