Today, there really isn’t an anti-war Left or Right.

Whatever the Party leaders want, their “social media influencers” will energetically push.

The average person then has to choose whether to go with the Party and “influencers,” or be different and get called some stupid name.

Most don’t want to be called the name.

This works on both sides.

Republicans may be against the Ukraine war, but give them an opportunity to cheerlead a war for Israel and they’ll trip over their pom-poms to do it.

On the bright side, fewer and fewer people care about being called stupid names for having the "wrong" political opinions now.

Could you please fine what means “to be against war in Ukraine”?

This is why I’m an Independent with a capital I.

There is no more right and left. The war is between elite and people. The real war must be fought between high and low. When people realize it will be too late.
