Is a Civil War possible?? Doesn't need to be.

The article titled "Is a New Civil War Possible" by Rod Dreher of the American Conservative  is well worth reading. I am so damn sick to death of those polarizing American society and culture. In my book, the most prominent polarizers are Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh, Tucker Carlson, Steve Bannon, Anne Coulter, Laura Ingraham, Donald Trump, Karl Rove, Lindsey Graham, Mitch McConnell, Newt Gingrich, and the list goes on and on. If you regularly consume their garbage, then please unfriend me on Facebook or consider me part of the Evil Left right here, right now. America is about unity in diversity. If you're a Christian who consumes the polarizers' propaganda as part of your "end times" vision for Jesus dropping out of the sky and making the world over into how you think it ought to be, then let's just call it quits for American Democracy and find a means for peacefully and justly parting the sheets. I would advocate a 50/50 split no-fault divorce but we need to talk further as GOP administrations racked up two-thirds of USA debt. The finances are one thing. We would need to peacefully decide how to part up the geography as well. No need for another civil war, let's just cite the failure of our democracy as due to irreconcilable differences. If Trump and billionaires and autocrats and corporations and fundamentalist religion ordering your life for you works best for you. I think a deal can be arranged without bloodshed.
